Microsoft tech-days Canada 2011 – November 29-30 in Montreal Canada

Title:
Application Development with HTML5

Abstract:
HTML5 is perhaps the biggest and most powerful HTML specification to ever come out of the W3C. Its roots come from a proposal to extend HTML4 to make it easier for web developers to create web applications. With more and more browsers supporting HTML5 ECMAScript 5 and other web standards developers now have a strong web platform they can use to create a new class of application that is more powerful and interactive than ever before. What's in HTML5 that lets us take our applications to the next level?
