Thoughts for the day… [OS platforms]

Can “an app for that” simply be a shortcut to a webpage?

And if so, open in a new browser (or tab).

Can a webpage in 2010 provide enough functionality to be better or just as a good as a desktop app (or mobile app)?

How about allowing it so the end user can make these choices and reap the rewards (or deal with the frustrations)?

Which uses the least battery? A fully functional dynamic website with ads + API tie ins? Or a stand alone application for that same website?

If you can answer these questions, hit the comments =)
