Congrats to our July Dev Derby winners on their amazing HTML5 video demos!

We shifted gears for July and invited Web developers to have some fun with HTML5 video for Dev Derby.

We had 15 awesome demos submitted and while there was a lot of entertainment and innovation happening, we had to narrow them down to 5 finalists:

Facial Recognition and Analytics with HTML5’s Video Tag
HTML5 Video Voting
HTML5 VJing Tool
jQuery VideoBG
Punch the TV!

There are so many cool things you can do with HTML5 video on the Web, and our winners circle definitely reflects the possibilities. So join us in congratulating our July Dev Derby winners!
