I read an article on CNN Money about future of HTML5. The article is too rosy about HTML5, in my opinion. What the article doesn't talk about is the abandoning of HTML5 by Facebook and by Google to some extent. With desktop nearing end of life, mobile is the future. Google mobile search has surpassed desktop traffic. And, in mobile we mostly use native apps against HTML5. How many time have you opened the mobile browser and checked your gmail or facebook or pinterest or any of your favorite/frequently used services? It's native apps most of the time. So, HTML5 is great, but not strong enough yet to compete against native apps.
