Abstract (maximum 500 words)

HTML5 and other related technologies (Like CSS3, localStorage, Geolocation, etc) are getting more and more attention and excitement in the developer community. This talk will take a look at how we can use these technologies to the benefit of the Wikimedia project. We'll take a look at what things could be improved in terms of front end code and design by the introduction of these new technologies, as well as play with a few possibilities of feature improvements to make it look, perform or adapt to various devices better.
