HTML5. Get some. Free.

Generously, the full content of Jeremy Keith’s HTML5 for Web Designers has been posted online. This was the first in a series of short, readable, nutrient-dense web design and development books published by A Book Apart.

I referenced the book a year ago when the current redesign of this site was in play, which included the incorporation of several of the new HTML structural, semantic elements. The book, only a year old, remains a worthy read. And now you can do it for free.
