2. Website: Ben the Bodyguard

How it uses HTML5: This security app’s HTML canvas-based promo site allows visitors to take a vertical stroll through a rather rough neighborhood while Ben has to fight threats off, in a style that reminds one of the 80’s video games.

Why it works: The ‘Ben the Bodyguard’ site uses HTML5 in a manner that helps the intent of the website--to promote this Nerd Communications’ security app for iPhones and iPod touch devices which helps protect user-data.

Overall, the website’s design is more than just a smooth interface—the fun cartoon-style design attracts and engages.
