10 things every web developer, designer (and manager) should know about HTML5 Video

Is HTML5 just an incremental update to HTML4.01, or is it a new, revolutionary technology that is gong to change the web? Well, it's actually a bit of both, and in this webcast we'll give you a 45 minute jumpstart on this new technology and everything you need to know when you walk into your next staff meeting and the subject comes up. You can expect to leave this webcast with the answers to questions like:

Do I need to rewrite my HTML4.01 pages to be HTML5 compliant?
Is web video as easy as it looks with the new video element?
Do I need to know JavaScript to use HTML5?
What are "web workers" anyway?

And a lot more.
