Five Cool HTML5 Sites

We thought we would share with you a great selection of sites built in HTML5.

Angry Birds for Chrome

The creators of the popular mobile game Angry Birds have created a browser version of the game. The browser version has been developed using some of the new features available in HTML5 including the <canvas> tag. Overall a very good example of how to develop a cross platform game.

Pirates Love Daisies

Another example of good use of the <canvas> tag. The creators of Pirates Love Daisies also make good use of the <audio> tag to add game sounds and improve the overall user experience.

Aviary

One of the best examples of how to use the Canvas tag can be seen on Aviary.com. They use the Canvas primarily as a photo editing tool and have incorporated many of the features that can be found in leading photo editing software. With Aviary you can upload and edit your photos directly in the browser and then save the changes.

HTML5 Lab

We have included HTML5 Lab because its good to see modern day "sites" are created using HTML5. As you can see below the site has been structured in such a way as to use a number of new tags introduced in HTML5.

Some of the tags used:

• <header>
• <hgroup>
• <section>
• <aside>
• <nav>
• <footer>

Agent 008 Ball

Another good example of how to create a fun simple game using HTML5 and the <canvas> tag.
