A lot of the hypermedia philosophy is centered around the idea that API clients should work a lot like web browsers and plain-old Hypertext Markup Language. They should follow hyperlinks, leverage media types, cache data when they can, and intelligently take advantage of the meaning of hyperlinks whenever possible.

Over the last twelve months, I have tagged every message in Gmail I've gotten from someone who applied the advice in those articles to effect in their careers. Sample comments: "Your advice made me $ 20,000 in two minutes.", "Your advice made be $35k", etc etc. …

…reset . HTML5 brings a whole bunch of new problems into the mix, in HTML4 only text and password types were rendered as single row text fields, but with HTML5 this will expand dramatically, conservatively the following are likely to become common: email , search , number , tel & url .
