Also, Don't let JSWolf turn you away from epub3 as he seems to be more than a bit biased against this format and seems to want eveyone to stay with epub2 forever.

Most eBooks on Smashwords are converted from Word to ePub using Calibre and those are all ePub 2. If this eBook was made as an ePub 3, what would happen when it's read with an ePub 2 renderer? At best case, some of the ePub 3 features won't work and at worst case it won't work.

Kobo can handle ePub 3, but they have to be converted to kepub. Sony doesn't support ePub 3. Nook does not support ePub 3. I'm not sure how tablet epub apps handle ePub 3. But Marvin (popular for iOS) for not support ePub 3.
