Approximate 1,842,439,107 websites support HTML5 ;-) I have no idea, but I do know that you can access Youtube via HTML5 instead of Flash. I'm not sure if that's just via a Chrome plugin or what. HTML5 for video stuff is still in its infancy, so Flash will be around for a while, but there are some viable competitors now so Adobe is really going to have to get its game together or it will eventually be irrelevant. You can only sit on your laurels for so long before something better comes along and steals your thunder...
