Google’s new fancy web book — “20 Things I Learned About Browsers and the Web”. I haven’t actually read the book; I’ve been too busy just looking at it.
- HTML5 + JavaScript
- Pretty URLs
- Real browser history thanks to some fancy JavaScript.
- Non-Flash page animations
- Content search
- ‘Resume place’ if you leave the page before finishing
- Page thumbnails in the footer
- Table of Things (contents)
- Light and dark themes
- Great illustrations
I can only hope this is somehow a HTML-book framework to be reused. That would be great.

UPDATE John Gruber at DaringFireball has a nice writeup on the book and a few links.
