And let’s remind ourselves why web applications are amazing things. They work cross browser because they’re based on standards. You don’t need to update them. As a developer, you never need to worry about old versions that people won’t upgrade. They’re searchable and their content shows up in search engines, which do a far better job of figuring out what people mean than any app store hierarchy. Practically anyone can write them. And best of all, you can plug in multiple third party advertising, analytics, social connector, mashup, affiliate, etc. into your application trivially. While it’s true today that you need to wrap your Sencha Touch application in a native shell (such as PhoneGap) in order to get access to camera or accelerometer. But with the current industry trends, we don’t think this will be the case for too long.
