Editor's Notes

  • #3 Frequently asked. App? Solution? Ideology?
  • #4 Simple, easy-to-use portal experience on mobile devices and tablets If it can be described by this phrase, then it’s uMobile
  • #5 Web: mUniversality & Respondr Titanium / PhoneGap: Build Once, Deploy Anywhere Native: Less portable, uses iOS/Android SDKs directly, idiomatic & fast
  • #6 Left: mUniversality, Right: Respondr! Respondr is cool; consistent experience Run within devices’ Web browsers
  • #7 Left: Titanium, Right: PhoneGap
  • #8 Native! Separate codebases, yet consistent L&F OU’s layout.json
  • #9 PhoneGap is open source iOS will be open source???
  • #10 Past presentations are recorded
  • #11 Immense shift in technology happening around us
