using HTML5 responsibly
HTML5 PleaseLook up HTML5 features, know if they are ready for use, and if so find out how you should use them – with polyfills, fallbacks or as they are.
useful HTML5 resources
HTML Elements and Attributes (html5.org) » HTML5 — Edition for Web Developers (WHATWG) + (X)HTML5 Validatorcomparison of mobile devices
Mobile HTML5 - compatibility tables... – "trying to understand HTML5 compatibility on mobile and tablet browsers"another day, another 'grid'
Fluid Baseline Grid - A sensible HTML5 and CSS3 development kitThe collection is growing.
experimental sharing project
HTML5 Snippets – "allows you to share html5 snippets. It's an small experimental project created by Roberto Brevé, currently in very alpha mode."'diagnostic CSS stylesheet'
Holmes - The CSS Markup Detectiveholmes.css is useful for checking the quality of your code (up to W3C HTML5 standards), nitpicking over ensuring markup is valid and semantic and accessility guidelines are met, and when you are tasked to fix up and debug an old, OLD website. It has a simple implementation and a mostly unobtrusive effect on your page. Not recommended for live enviroments.
(also available as simple bookmarklet)
a sensible boilerplate approach
320 and upMany CSS Media Queries boilerplates start with a desktop-specific stylesheet, then add queries and styles for progressively smaller viewports. This means that even the small browsers load desktop layout styles and potentially large assets, even when these are set to display:none;.
'320 and Up' starts with a tiny screen stylesheet that contains only reset, colour and typography styles. Media Queries then load assets and layout styles progressively and only as they’re needed. Think of this as responsible responsive design.
'handy browser feature test'
The HTML5 test - How well does your browser support HTML5? (ads) [The Letter]marketing tactics vs. web standards
Apple's HTML5 Showcase Isn't HTML5, Blocks Other Browsers(see Apple - HTML5)
It seems like Apple is using the same sneaky marketing tactics as Microsoft does with its HTML5 demos page - which doesn't really use any HTML5 either. This similarity is hardly surprising considering both companies are pushing a non-Free patent-encumbered codec for HTML5 video.

layouts 'collapse intelligently'
Less Framework – "An HTML5-powered CSS framework for building smart website layouts for varying screen widths."new take on an old game
Browser Pong...designed to take advantage of emerging HTML5 features (including Audio elements), intentionally breaking compatibility with older browser versions and substandard contemporaries such as Internet Explorer. Good for Macintosh. Best in Safari 4, Chrome 4, FireFox 3.5, and Opera 10 in that order.
