Too early to use HTML5?

virtualmisc · 11-18-2009, 05:06 PM

Hello Friends
What is your view about using HTML5.
I thought it was too early to use it because it was new.
But heard that Google Wave was built as an HTML 5 app.
What do you think?
Am I rushing by starting using it?
Thanks

"As of October 2009, the specification is in the "Last Call" state at the WHATWG." "The specification is an ongoing work, and is expected to remain so for many years" i think its a weee bit early but then again never hurts to get ahead of the curve and learn it. I remember when PHP came out and i was like "i wonder if this is gonna catch on" lol

I thought IE wasn't supporting it?

When does Microsoft support anything that isn't its own idea?
