... if and only if someone can make a profit out of it. Hydrogen is the future as it requires you to fill up a fuel container of some sort in exchange for money. Who here really thinks all these multi-billion oil companies are going to let free and abundant fuel circulate without putting up a fight?? Be honnest: it would be against the nature of capitalis. I mean, free stuff is only good if you can resell it to someone else, right?
Problem is, most computer users are usung IE because they dont know how to get another browser and install it on their computers, so until then, the MSIE defacto standard still forces web developers to use hacks, workarounds and other crap of the same nature, to make a given site IE-Friendly. Until then, HTML5 will remain a cute and fun buzzword for marketing and sales... and a headache for the web developers. Whenever you see the word "Work-Around" it means alot of work, it means that code wont be clean, and it means it will not be so easy to maintain, which, from my experience, is crucial for web dev.
And let's face it, Microsoft will take as little time as possible to support the standard if ever: they have their own technologies and agendas to promote, just like Apple has is pushing its tech and agenda with iOS...
This kind of crap is what made me get out of the web dev business and after over a year, i dont regret if for a second. I even sleep better at night!

They are called DRAGONS and KNIGHTS. stop spreading such ideas: they sound so scientific.
