As we know, websites rely on the HTML standards. The upcoming revision of HTML will promise changes to the entire web scape and Apple is betting on it by not committing to Flash nor Java.
HTML5 is a language for structuring and presenting content for the World Wide Web, a core technology of the Internet. It is the latest revision of the HTML standard (originally created in 1990) and currently remains under development.
So what will it bring? There is a likelihood of a major change that will allow more complex web applications to be created and run more efficiently on web browsers, allowing more sophisticated multimedia and providing a new experience for users once it is released.
Industry watchers believe that the new HTML 5 extends, improves and rationalises the markup available for documents, and introduces markup and APIs for complex web applications, pushing for interoperable implementations between current web standards.
It is also an attempt to define a single markup language that can be written in either HTML or XHTML syntax
As to what beholds the coming of HTML5, we will have to wait for it to roll out tentatively over the next few coming years and improved upon in the ongoing process before it is slated for "Recommendation" in 2014 by W3C
