The UNL New Media Center Students will present a talk titled "Mobile Confusion: A Student Perspective" on Thursday, April 19 at 4 p.m. in 115 Avery Hall. The following is a synopsis:
If you are a student of graphic arts or computer science, or even a hobbyist designer/coder, the mobile space is very confusing right now. There are 3 major players (HTML5, iOS, Android) and a possible 4th game changer, Windows Phone 8.
Can we use HTML5 and mobile web to make convincing apps or is native (iOS, Android and Windows Phone 8) the holy grail? As a student coder, how crazy is it to learn all these platforms and still have a life?
