It might be an obvious question, but I was wondering how do you start using new technology?
I saw all the new tags etc. but probably if I’ll just start using it, it won’t recognize it.
Do I need to install something/ define something/ etc to be able to start using it? how will visual studio know it’s html5?

All the guides concentrate of how to use the tags and syntax inside html5, but not how to enable it…

    This is all you need to start a blank html5 document:

    <!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>

<body>
</body>
</html>

    I highly recommend also using an html5 shiv http://code.google.com/p/html5shiv/ so that your page will degrade nicely in older browsers.
