'APPS' AND 'THE WEB' ARE TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FUCKING THINGS!!!
Do you realize you're comparing a crippled, poorly-designed gadget with a distributed, massively networked system for browsing documents and information?
'Apps' do not work like 'the web' because they're not supposed to work that way. They're supposed to be static, stable, simple, reliable, offline, well-tested, usable. 'The web' is literally thrown together like so many ingredients in hobo chili. 'An app' is a Bonsai tree. Unfortunately, most people spend all their time tweaking the chili and spend absolutely no time pruning their bonsai. God, I hate making these comparisons.
I'm sorry for being angry, but it's getting sickening just reading the titles for weird articles like these that make no sense.
That's true, but on the other hand, there are many apps that are pleasure to use where a web site is a pain in the ass. The android gmail app comes to mind.
