  I like that!  Now I can say procrastination has finally paid off.

Not necessarily.  You've actually managed to avoid a LOT of drudgery in the
old web way of doing things (ASP.NET WinForms, browser Incompatibility,
poor Javascript performance, creaky, obsolete PHP hosting...)

You can now safely ignore that, and learn the cool, new web stuff:

* HTML5
* CSS3
* MVC frameworks (good choices exist for .NET and open-source platforms)
* Javascript frameworks (JQuery is well-supported by MVC frameworks)
* Easy-to-sync, fault-tolerant, scalable hosting solutions (for PHP, see
Pagoda Box ( http://newpagodabox.com/ ) and PHP Fog (
https://www.phpfog.com/ )

This range of new technology makes it much easier to target web apps for
mobile devices.

Plus, there are cool new platforms for Mobile, including Xamarin (
http://xamarin.com/ ), which is a .NET / Mono / Visual Studio platform for
developing Android and iOS applications.

So, you can view your procrastination as strategically waiting for a time
like now to jump into cool new things.
