With apps like google maps, yelp, and all the others out there, every restaurant now has some kind of visibility online. It may not be their menu and daily specials, but it will be their address, phone number, and reviews by customers. I personally use the internet to find practically everything now.

I always compare 90′s which was age of PC app, then Web won it. Mobile is another PC(smaller), which will surly turn to same fate Web. Why… Web is centric and App is polar.

I’m sorry, but apart from what I would call a niche market on the iPhone, custom apps that access the Internet in place of a web browser are just not that commonly used. To make things worse, the few web apps that are available on the desktop almost all use an embedded MSIE window, making them insecure, unreliable, and slow. Besides, an application designed specifically to do one thing has none of the versatility of a web browser. I’d rather wait the extra couple of seconds for my multipurpose browser to start than be limited to doing one or two things online by some narrowly focused program that isn’t good for anything else.

The browser is here to stay for the foreseeable future. Get used to it.
