Editor's Notes
As a software community, you have to adapt and respond to these changes to innovate. You have to focus on these changes that are happening in mobile, respond to these changes and innovate. You can’t simply look at the PC model and think of doing it in mobile all over again. You have to take in the whole horizon. You have to understand how web development is going to change mobile. Then, you have to go out and create your future.
