Finally, a readable and objective primer for the layman on HTML5, and one of the only sources on the subject that succinctly explains one big glaring reason some of us (Hi, I work for a video chat company) still have to rely on Flash:

A blog full of thoughts and observations on making the web a better place, collected by Sarah Harrison.
52 Weeks of UX — usually updated weekly with two short & sweet articles on a variety of topics related to design for the Web. Really good stuff.A List Apart — I’ve been a reader since probably 2001, and they keep producing quality content, year after year.Asterisk 52 — The experienced and talented D. Keith Robinson writes about web design, game design, and more.Brown Blog — From Matt Brown and Tiffani Jones, a fearsome duo producing some useful and straightforward articles on web design, content strategy, and more.Smashing Magazine — I have kind of a love-hate relationship with this blog. Half their articles are mindless lists of lists clearly aimed at driving traffic, but then there's a steady undercurrent of real, useful, meaty content sprinkled throughout.User Interface Engineering Brain Sparks — The blog at UIE.com, from usability researcher and speaker Jared Spool, is full of examples, insight, interviews with designers from all over the world, and a lot of great information.UX Booth — I'm a new reader of this User Experience and usability focused blog, but what I've seen so far has been really useful and interesting.See also:
