I do not do coding in HTML5. It is little bit hard for me. However my some friends are using it but not as regular practice.

I have not started using HTML5 either, as there are old browsers still in use, I do use CSS3 but assuring backward compatibility.

Yes, I use it all the time exclusively. There is no reason not to now. The best way to get it cross browser compatible is to use the html5 boilerplate or the modernizer script to sniff for browser compatibility.

Most modern browsers will handel html5. Probably the best right now are webkit based browsers.

We've started doing HTML5 across the board on our projects, though we're careful to include fallback support

I've only used HTML5 for a few fun websites since it was released. Business websites and most customers looking for a wide range of compatibility just can't trust a full HTML5 site just yet. Sure, you can use HTML5 and CSS3 and add everything you need to make the site backwards compatible. But very few of the websites that I design right now have a need for the functionality that HTML5 provides. My customers are perfectly happy with what their non HTML5 site can do, so there's no bother. Eventually, when customers are demanding features that can only be done in HTML5 I'll get into it more.

There are a lot of comments that older browsers don't support html5. This is just false. ALL browsers support it. When I say ALL we are really talking about IE 6-8. It requires one line of conditional javascript to be able to use the new semantic markup like header, nav, article, section, and aside. The main function of html5 is to cut out all of the unneeded markup and make the pages flow better for seo and speed.
Sure there is the canvas tag but this requires advanced js to be able to draw elements and interact with them. There are also the video and audio elements but they are not in final spec yet so I wouldn't use them, but they work.
I think that the uninformed comments are directed at css3 not html5. Not all of the css3 properties like border-radius, transform and translate with hardware acceleration are compatible with older browsers.
You should absolutely start using html5 just leave out the advanced styling of css3 until the older browsers die or if you don't care about giving IE 6-8 users a lesser experience on your site use css3.
Going by my analytics I have less than 10% of my site users on IE with less than 1% of them using IE6 so I use CSS3 all the way. Firefox and Chrome are the major browsers with anyone that has any technical knowledge, so that is who I target.
There are some great resources out there to help you get started using HTML5 and CSS3. The best place to start is at:
