Use HTML5 or otherwise

[mark_waltersmith]

Hey folks, I have a background in traditional enterprise software, and I am trying to gain expertise on newer technologies. I will greatly appreciate, if you could help me understand, when to use HTML5, when to use Flash and when to use Silverlight. If you could point to some tools etc that will be helpful. Thanks for your help

Since you're asking here, the obvious answer is: just use HTML5 (and SVG et al), never use Flash, never use Silverlight.
