Overall I like it, It can be very usefull for initial mark up where design isn't much inportant. Definitely took a place at my bookmarks.

Only one thing I noticed. I am not sure if it is a bug, but please check this page http://pea.rs/forms/multi-left-labels (and apparently same at http://pea.rs/forms/top-labels)

It has some problems with displaying textarea, at least for me it looks like that: http://i.imgur.com/tJKiG.png

I am using Windows 7 with Firefox 9.0.1

That's because the markup says <textarea id="bio"></textarea> instead of

It's going to look like that for everyone.

I'm a web developer trying to be a designer as well and the one thing that always frustrates me with HTML 5 resources is that they focus on the definition of each new element and not proper use which preserves its semantic value within a document. This one pretty much nailed it with good examples. Thanks for sharing!

Awesome resource. Quite jealous of those just starting out. I wish I would have had stuff like this when I first started.

Don't be jealous, on the contrary -- be thankful you got to learn without having the correct answer handed to you on a silver platter.

If there's anything to be thankful for in the current climate, it's the diversity of browsers and device form factors forcing designers to think about the layout outside of Photoshop.
