  1. Mobiles are extremely used on web. Much more than a few years ago. In Brazil, its raising 500% per year according to google. We need to start focusing on that very quickly. Nice article!

  2. You wouldn’t believe how many “Back” button battles we’ve had in the past few months for our mobile sites. It’s like the early web days all over again.

  3. Having the menu button at the top take the user to a menu at the bottom of the page is a bad idea.  If you argue that having a navigation page takes the user out of context is bad, then scrolling the user away from the context they’re in isn’t any better.  It might even be worst.  Autoscrolling is more jarring to me and there’s often no way to get back to the same context.  I favor having a menu that is laid over the content.  This way the user is able to take a peek at the menu and dismiss it without penalty.  Peeking without penalty is a UX design pattern I’m seeing more of in both desktop and mobile apps.

  4. Hi Luke, I was about to buy the book, but I see that it’s quite old (from 2011?)
    Any updates planned for 2013?
    BTW, in German Amazon they only have the French version of the book!?
