From the What’s Next, Top Trends Blog:
Are PCs heading for extinction?>
Statistics from Mary Meeker at Morgan Stanley:
“In the second quarter of 2007 Apple’s revenues were as follows: 47% Macintosh range of computers, iPods 40% and iTunes 11%. Fast forward to the first quarter of 2010 and the revenue figures looked like this: iPhone 40%, iPod and iTunes combined 24% and Macintosh computers 28%.”
“One other good one. If you look at a graph showing sales of PCs against sales of smartphones globally you will observe that sometime in 2012, smartphones are due to start outselling PCs.”
So what willl be the mix of users devices in the future.
It used to be we only worried about desktops and screen browser resolution. Now you need to worry about and test on so much more.
What is the mix of users on your library websites today? How many are mobile? Is mobile just a blip and starting out or is it more?
