Visits from mobile devices • 8,000 visits in 2008 • 490,000 visits so far in 2011 • 3% of total visits
UWS mobile platform • Aimed at handsets not tablets • Draws content from live web pages on our site • Selected content only – aimed at the website visitor who is not at their desk • Can be distributed as an app if desired • One platform supports multiple apps • Platform supports all OS and all devices
Sneak peek #1 • http://blinkm.co/uws-test
What we need is…a responsive design • One CSS for all devices • Same content for all devices • Size of browser window determines layout • Examples: Boston Globe, Westminster Abbey….
