One word : semantics.
It all has to do with what the tags mean to the computer. For example, you
can write <div class="code"> to specify that the markup in that div is code
and should be displayed as such. However, to the browser, the means nothing
more than <div class="happyfuntime">. They're both just divs.
Now, if you use the new code element instead, that tells the browser it is
code.
There's a new code element? How does it differ from the old one?
