Fun with HTML5

I guess I'm a bit late to the game. However, perhaps not too late. HTML5 offers a host of solutions for the kind of application I want to build: rich client, local storage, animated, etc. I walked through several HTML5 demos and examples over the weekend.

I can deliver a rich client experience for an application needing local only storage with nothing but HTML5, JavaScript and CSS3. But for real 'client server' or mashups with shared information, we still need connectivity to the server (Ajax based, RESTful, transport in JSON).
