I was just wondering, is there any advantage in one over the other or it doesn't really matter cause both get rendered the same?

I wrote an article on that very topic! http://joshnh.com/2011/09/29/hsla-are-you-using-it-here-is-why-i-think-you-should-be/

Got two questions.
How do I convert hex to hsl?
What those percentages attributes do?

Here is the converter that I use: http://serennu.com/colour/hsltorgb.php

The percentage components of HSL are the Saturation and Lightness. 0% Saturation is no colour and 100% is full colour. 0% Lightness is black and 100% is white. So if you wanted red you would use hsl(0,50%,50%).
