The W3C has released a bright and shiny new logo for the HTML5 standard. Created by W3C and design Ocupop, the badge-like HTML5 logo features a large white “5″ on a crest of red. The logo is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0, allowing free use of the design by all. The W3C indicates that HTML5 will reference a range of technologies with various degrees of adoption and standardisation, with “it’s not necessary to wait until everything is finalised before it can start to be used”.
It stands strong and true, resilient and universal as the markup you write. It shines as bright and as bold as the forward-thinking, dedicated web developers you are. It’s the standard’s standard, a pennant for progress. And it certainly doesn’t use tables for layout.
We present an HTML5 logo.
Imagination, meet implementation. HTML5 is the cornerstone of the W3C’s open web platform; a framework designed to support innovation and foster the full potential the web has to offer. Heralding this revolutionary collection of tools and standards, the HTML5 identity system provides the visual vocabulary to clearly classify and communicate our collective efforts.

Class: SemanticsGiving meaning to structure, semantics are front and center with HTML5. A richer set of tags, along with RDFa, microdata, and microformats, are enabling a more useful, data driven web for both programs and your users. |
|
Class: Offline & StorageHTML5 apps can start faster, and work even if there is no internet connection, thanks to the App Cache, Local Storage, Indexed DB, and the File APIs. |
|
Class: Device AccessWith geo-location just the beginning, HTML5 will help apps to access devices outside of your browser and connected to your computer. |
|
Class: ConnectivityMore efficient connectivity means more real-time chats, faster games, and better communication. Web Sockets and Server-Sent Events are pushing (pun intended) data between client and server more efficiently than ever before. |
|
Class: MultimediaAudio and video are first class citizens in the HTML5 web, living in harmony with your apps and sites. Lights, camera, action! |
|
Class: 3D, Graphics & EffectsBetween SVG, Canvas, WebGL, and CSS3 3D features, you’re sure to amaze your users with stunning visuals natively rendered in the browser. |
|
Class: Performance & IntegrationMake your web app, and the web, faster with a variety of techniques and technologies such as Web Workers and XMLHttpRequest 2. No user shall ever wait on your watch. |
|
Class: CSS3CSS3 delivers a wide range of stylization and effects, enhancing the web app without sacrificing your semantic structure or performance. Additionally Web Open Font Format (WOFF) provides typographic flexibility and control far beyond anything the web has offered before. |
