I plan to look out for & compile interesting, practical, real-world examples of HTML5 features that popular websites have started implementing. I hope all the browser manufacturers quickly agree on a common minimum set of HTML5 features & get HTML5 rolling.
* Google Docs now supports uploading an entire folder.
There is a nice explanation on StackOverflow about how this is achieved by setting up an attribute "webkitdirectory" on a file input element.
Unfortunately as this attribute is proprietary, this feature doesn't work on all browsers.
* The Windows Live team recently released a faster new version of SkyDrive that incorporates HTML5 features.
HTML5 versions of Hotmail & Bing are believed to be on the cards
* 6 of the world's top 10 websites currently use LocalStorage on the mobile while Bing & Google use it on the desktop browser as well. Twitter uses App cache.

"We’re using HTML5 for CSS animations, reflow animations and other features. We’re using local storage for various parts of our caching support. We’ve also worked on making our HTML more standards compliant, so that everything you see works in as many modern browsers as possible."
