Yay! We still have jobs for awhile… Zuck mentions the importance of HTML5 in this RWW article

Why the Web is not going to die
That standard is HTML5, which Facebook plans to push very hard. If HTML5 can deliever a wide range of functions with a good user experience, then Facebook can develop one HTML5 version for every new product it launches and “that would be awesome,” Zuckerberg said. And HTML5 could combat the problem of unfair access raised by the great App Migration.

Already Facebook has launched a special mobile site for people in developing countries (and some developed ones). 0.facebook lets users access a speedy, data charge-free version of Facebook with a mobile browser from any basic phone even in parts of the world with poor infrastructure.

Until the devices that people use to access the internet are completely standardized, the Web will never die.

While at Google i/O this was obvious Google is really pushing HTML5 and I heard a few comments like wouldn’t it be great if you only had to write your mobile app once… It will happen and Apple will not like it.
