Today I interviewed the cofounders of Nextstop http://www.nextstop.com about their mobile strategy. They decided to do a web app instead of building a native iPhone app and here's their reasons that they chose HTML 5.

  • Unfortunately the site was taken down after Facebook purchased it.

  • GF, the site doesnt even exist.

  • I love HTML5

  • Oh the site is down. The company was purchased by Facebook.

  • @thebaxx That's not true I happen to have Flash CS5 and it still can export iPhone apps and you can use iTunes to put the apps you made on your phone...

  • @maw88ify - unfortunately that didn't pan out. Apple put the axe to that idea. Flash CS5 has no iPhone app packager.

  • @iactionscript well I probably wouldn't use it anyway, it was just intended as a wakeup call to the Adobe fanboys who think that HTML5 will fall flat on it's face

  • @tuleo554

    Puts a paragraph with a space in it every time you hit the "Enter" key.

  • guess what Dreamweaver CS5 does?

    convert Flash to HTML5...yup

  • Not necc. Have you run the Google Voice HTML5 Web App. It's a thing of beauty but it's slower bc it's NOT LOCAL.
