>>The default platform today, like it or not, is the browser and the default data and development tools are open source.
Latest data I've seen is that 80-90% of mobile data minutes are in apps, not web. With mobile sessions now comprehensively exceeding desktop according to Google Analytics, it's an app world out there. This takes nothing away from your and Victor's successes with desktop or browser apps. Sheesh, what does it matter what the likes of us think? The world will do its own thing regardless.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
