Looks like Wikipedia is on track to become a big server of HTML5 WebM videos. The absence of H.264 support (assuming they hold on to that) might finally push Microsoft and Apple to support WebM out of the box. Maybe we will also see more hardware support for WebM in mobile devices...

Yes, and this is really exciting news. Soon one day, publishing a video is as easy as publishing a img, the world will be then a more open and free place.
Plus lots of HTML 5 video players out there. Things are looking good.
