This is the latest version on HTML which is launched to make sure that HTML is not legging behind with the world. In today's net savvy world we have different type of videoes, audioes,pictures showing on the websites. These all items need different plug in to run with like flash player, but now no plugin is required:)

3) source- For media resources for media elements, defined inside video or audio elements

4) embed- For embedded content, such as a plug-in

5) Canvas - The HTML5 canvas element uses JavaScript to draw graphics on a web page. using this you can create images on the webpage itself file filled rectangle
