Good introduction to CSS3, showing examples and code for different types of gradients, rounded corners and shadows. Also check out the links to tools for CSS3 experimenting.

Everyone who was ever interested in CSS3 has already tried it. Now we can generate rounded corners and drop shadows without any superfluous efforts.

But it’s just a superficial level. I had to look into the new possibilities of browsers in more detail, to answer the arising questions like: to what extent gradients with a great number of colour transitions have the cross browser compatibility, where and how is it possible to apply at once a few shadows to the block, for what browsers prefixes of properties are used specifically etc.
