Top 20 HTML5 and CSS3 sites to inspire you

The use of HTML5 in combination with CSS3 is really starting to take off. Safari, Chrome and Mozilla are pushing more support with each new release making it possible to code really great websites.

The best way to learn new techniques is by example, trial and error. Currently you can already start using HTML5 just by changing your document type.

To get you inspired and motivated to start using HTML5 I’ve listed the top 20 HTML5 websites.

As it goes with CSS3 and HTML5 they work best in a webkit browser such as Safari and Chrome.

Good use of HTML5 tags: header, nav, section, article and footer. The effects used for “Elsewhere” are very eye catching and unique.
