The Mobile Browser Is Dead, Long Live The App - 7 views

  •  
    If we accept this, are there implications for our aim to design a responsive site?
  • ...1 more comment...

    Wow, very interesting. The numbers tell the story of the browser use declining. The great increase was social media; people still use the browser on a computer to access the social media site. They don't download a Facebook application to install on their computer-they use the browser. But mobile-wise, that's a different beast. I still think we should create a site that is accessible to mobile devices rather than create an app. I think in the coming years, though, iOS/Android developers will probably be job positions here at UT. Great post, thanks for sharing.

    I take issue with focusing on the amount of time spent in apps vs. mobile web. If you look at the breakdown, 68% of app time is on pure entertainment activities like gaming, social media and YouTube. Which makes total sense that people spend a disproportionate amount of time on those things. Plus that guy looks really annoying!

    RE: Mason-Good points, Señor Mason. But using inflammatory titles gets people reading. My next post will be "LIBRARIES ARE DEAD-EVERYTHING IS ON GOOGLE, ANYWAY".

The include a short video with each entry and talk a bit about their selection. They even include the Kalashnikov rifle as on of their iconic designs.

    Cool little web app that tells you when the next Cap Metro bus is scheduled to come. Real time info on actual arrival would be cooler but this ain't bad.
