The mobile web has won!

These are not our words, but come from the mouth of Vic Gundotra, Google Engineering vice president. Google believes that mobile users will get their information through mobile browsers rather than downloaded apps.

“What we clearly see happening is a move to incredibly powerful browsers,” he said. “Many, many applications can be delivered through the browser and what that does for our costs is stunning.”

“We believe the Web has won and over the next several years, the browser, for economic reasons almost, will become the platform that matters and certainly that’s where Google is investing,” he added.

We from Siruna are of course delighted to hear that Google also puts its money on mobile browsing. We'd like to add "device diversity" to the equation: we believe it will be crucial to use a technology that delivers an optimal mobile browsing experience on any device. Have a look at our technology: it has all the advantages of tomorrow's mobile web.
