Deeplinking: The Past, Present and Future of Mobile Marketing

• the_watcher 13y ago
  >> Before long, deeplinking will become ubiquitous. Every time I click a mobile link that sends me to the mobile web when I have the app installed on my phone, I think about this.

  We're testing a deep linking service that works both before and after the app is installed and integrates with URX/DeepLink.me and others. If you'd like to join the beta just email slaven at gmail.
