Category: Web site tips

This is an interesting topic that comes up quite a lot for us in general discussion. With recent statistics coming out about how people spend their time on digital devices, we can see that there could be a tipping point in the best way to provide someone company information/products.

Statistics show that the average time spent per day on mobile devices is two hours, thirty-eight minutes and finds that 80% of mobile device time is spent in apps with only 20% of that time in a web browser.

So what does this tell us?

Basically what this is saying is that, yes it is really important to make sure your website is responsive and works well in a mobile phone browser but you could be seeing much better results if your company had a tailored mobile app to essentially ‘spoon’ feed the consumer information.

You could use the argument that people will not wade through the sea of available apps when they can simply use a website or ask google. But, when mobile is how we are spending our time, and we are ALREADY spending 80% of that mobile time in apps it shows that consumers want the simplicity and focus that apps provide.

We are not saying that websites will become obsolete any time soon but offering a app for your business to run alongside your company could be really beneficial.

Windows 10 comes out on July 29th, but you might have to wait until later to get it. Microsoft said today that it would be rolling out Windows 10 in waves, “slowly scaling up” the rollout as it sees how things are going. The intention seems to be playing it safe and making sure that Windows 10 is getting a good response and running smoothly across the millions of different systems out there. Microsoft may even issue updates to Windows 10 between its July 29th release date and the time that some early adopters are actually able to download it.

Microsoft says that it’s found the “vast majority” of systems running Windows 7 and 8 to be fully compatible with Windows 10. Manufacturers will have Windows 10 in their hands soon to begin putting it on new machines, and retailers will receive a separate build that can be used to help update eligible devices that were bought with Windows 8.1. Windows 10 Pro’s availability will also begin on July 29th. Windows 10 Enterprise and Windows 10 Education will be available a few days later, on August 1st.
