Financial Times Proves HTML5 Can Beat Native Mobile Apps

Financial Times logo


A colleague sent out a link to this article over the weekend – well worth a read. Apparently when Apple decided that publishers had to hand over 30% of the revenue of apps sold via the iTunes store, the FT decided to take a different route and pull their app from the iTunes store – focusing instead on creating an HTML5-driven, Web-based application.
I won’t re-write the story – instead, read it here.

Anyone know of any other good examples of other such web-based apps that are experiencing a similar degree of success?
