Week 1 Out of Class: Mobile First


Mobile first begins with the author proving to his readers through statistics that mobile devices are, by far, the most used for web usage, bypassing the PC in 2010.  In the first chapter, growth, he discusses the evolution of the Smartphone from 2006 to now and how as the networks become faster the mobile traffic has increased.  The main idea of chapter two is constraints, the author explained that things like a smaller screen size forces the business to really figure out what is actually most important to them and their customers.  Chapter 3 focuses on the capabilities technology has and how we should use them.  Since not all devices have the same capabilities designers need to make sure that they are designing for the problem not just to use the newest feature because that may alienate part of their audience.
