Hi Jim -- I have read this morning a poll of mobile apps devs companies (http://slon.ru/appheroes/kakim-budet-rynok-prilozheniy-v-2013-godu-mnenie-razrabotchikov-858560.xhtml (in Russian)) - 66% vs. 33% suppose that native mobile apps will dominate over HTML5 within the next five years. (Yes, I realize that the mobile apps developers can be not the best polling source for "native mobile apps vs. HTM5 apps" question)... Thank you. -- Shamil Вторник, 4 декабря 2012, 12:03 от "Jim Lawrence" <accessd at shaw.ca>: > > > > >The web world is more than ever becoming "the" computer world.
