An interesting post from Cameron Moll on the future of the web on mobile devices. Thanks to the iPhone OS there has been a shift in the way people consume the web. He talks about the NPR iPad application and how much better of an experience it is than NPR.org. Moll is concerned that the quick adoption of iPhone OS devices and the momentum of app development may lead content creators to begin choosing Objective-C and the iPhone OS (also the iPad OS) as the starting point rather than HTML/CSS & the browser. I don’t see this shift happening anytime soon but after playing with the NPR iPad app I’d have to agree that the user experience is impressive. Click the link above, it’s worth the read.
