Mashable! for iPad
Site link
Project description
<p> Mashable is one of the world’s largest blogs focused exclusively on Web 2.0 and Social Media news, with more than 15 million monthly pageviews. We were very excited when approached to develop their iPad application. Mashable already had a very popular iPhone application and it was our job to figure out the best way to take advantage of the iPad’s increased real-estate and new user interface to be able to deliver something that all of their readers would enjoy. </p>Client quote
Mashable is excited to launch our new iPad app and we think Intridea has done a fantastic job. There’s high demand for Mashable on the iPad, and we think our readers will be as excited as we are about the launch. - Pete Cashmore, CEO of Mashable, Inc , <a href="http://mashable.com">Mashable! for iPad</a>

Back when the most important and/or dominant platform was the Desktop, QT and Java made it easy to develop software that could be run anywhere. But enter the Smartphone Era stage-left, and you've got a problem - those solutions are not available on iPhones, iPads, etc.
This has led to a lot of buzz around HTML5-based development for mobile apps (PhoneGap, for example is a popular platform for building applications with HTML5). Often these platforms do not support native UI components, but people seem to care less about standard UI nowadays; authoring UI with HTML5 gives people more freedom on look and feel. Traditionally javascript is very restricted for security reason (no local file/socket access etc), but the restriction can be lifted via browser extension.
So, great - we can use HTML5 to write platform-independent software for smart phones. But, we can also use similar technology to write desktop applications with HTML5 - even better!
