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?

    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".

    Example of a library using Pinterest for book lists. Very visually appealing. They linked the cover images to the catalog in some cases although it's inconsistent.

    interesting WP plugin - may not be appropriate for UT Libs since you have no control over the external comments, but very interesting
  •  
    Allows you to hide the comment until approved by an admin... seems to work well... i enabled it on tis and longhorn reviews... of course, no comments were found out in the internets.
