HTML 5 has been a subject of great debate, much enthusiasm and a little confusion in the past year. In some corners, HTML 5 is being praised as the savior of web design and maybe it will be. Who knows? As a design nerd, the news I’m interested in is the World-Wide Web Consortium (W3C) recently unveiled a new logo for HTML5.  The logo is not yet the official logo, but has been introduced in order to build community interest and spirit. If, as the W3C hopes, the community embraces the logo, W3C will adopt it as its own official logo for HTML5 in the first quarter of 2011.

Read the rest of this story over on the Design Festival site.

    Gets a logo with a 5 on it just in time to drop listing the version number?

    Or is this just WhatWG saying they aren’t using a number and the W3C giving them the finger?

    • Louis Simoneau

      The opposite, actually. The W3C released their logo, and then a day or so later the WHATWG announced they were dropping the “5″

    No joke.
