Square’s Keith Rabois: Websites are dead, reinvent for mobile | VentureBeat ›
“the website as you know it” is “dead, dying, will be dying,” and that the future lies in reinventing Web experiences on the mobile phone.
many smart folks have been saying this for a long time and it’s so damn true.
Couldn’t agree more. A well-crafted native app redefines the user’s experience. Also enjoyed the following quote from the same article:
Facebook chief technology officer Bret Taylor has said that mobile websites built with the HTML5 format, rather than native apps, are “the future platform that we’re going to be looking to.” Rabois said that Facebook’s HTML5 strategy is wrong, and that chief executive Mark Zuckerberg will eventually realize that he needs to build a reinvented mobile app, just like everyone else.
