Didn't like the article. I believe using ambiguity of words "web", "create" and "content" he completely mixed up things. Maybe he's right in some or all aspects

Didn't like the article. I believe using ambiguity of words "web", "create" and "content" he completely mixed up things. Maybe he's right in some or all aspects, but it's too messy to read. At least I feel something's wrong when I read something about hyperlinks, then suddenly seeing a comparison of web to native code (huh?)
- simonw 13y agoThat made complete sense to me. There's a trend recently of people focusing on native mobile apps instead of websites (see Keith Rabois on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rabois/status/406519032624320512 https://twitter.com/rabois/status/406519032624320512 "nobody is going to be using the web soon"). I read this article as a reaction to that trend.
- drdaeman 13y agoThanks. Now, with a context, it made sense. [Added a bit later] Although, I don't see how "mobile" is much conceptually different from the "web". The only missing part is linking and transferring of mobile app code over the network, on demand, instead of barcode/hyperlink-market-install manual process. But that's because of security model deficiencies on modern mobiles, and I won't be surprised things'll change. Then mobile'll be part of the web - no conflict here.
