Html5 is the next generation of the traditional html, or the most recent html4.1 which is just the webs markup language. Combined with css javascript and serverside languages, you get what we've had over the past 10 years and before as our traditional websites.
Html5 is supposed to address the next evolution of the internet which is web applications. Web applications acts alot like a native application on a mobile device, for example the android or iphone or a web OS device, and download a native applications, There is alot of things that native applications allows you to do, specially gaming, gaming allows 2d and 3d engines on a native devices, takes advantage of being to create graphics and manipulat graphics with views touches and everything.
The html5 is going to allow you native applications in the web. Instead of having to use an objective C or android which is the Java language, you are actually able to build alot of those type of native functionality using html5. Now this is great because you are actually be able to develop an application ones and you can use it on your desktop PC, your tablet device and your smartphone device even if they are on different platforms.
Across desktops html5 is not actually finest product. The World Wide Web Consortium is still working on developing the specific standards and accepted standards accross browsers. However %95 of mobile application or mobile devices including tablets are equipped with html5, not so much for your browser but difinitely for your mobile.Also the creation of chrome webstore, if your roaming at chrome browser or the new chrome notebook, you can actually add your html5 application and developers can now monetize their apps within the chrome store. Now these take moving native to html5 to the next level.Previously developers likes to develop native, because there is an app store that they can sell their application and monetize the product easy. Now google created it much easier to be able to monetize your html application. However your chrome store is only available on the desktop.
Html5 has an offline access, using offline access you will be able to take advantage of some API's that allow you to access your web application or allow the user to access the application when they are not connected to the internet.
Html5 has file access, this allows you to read synchronizely, and write a temporary files and upload files. The real advantage of this is you can able to drag and drop the file directly to your browser.
Html5 has Canvas tag, this can able you to create animations, and as well as html5 games. It also has storage similar to files access which allows you to use websql langauages, store data in the actual client side as well as from there you can also sync it to the server.
Html5 got it's real splash when apple decided not to allow the 3rd party product flush into its device.
