Yeah, but I find the original post as a little backwards. Not everything makes sense on mobile. Not everything makes sense on the web. So why try to shoehorn it in there?
As with the web, it's not the shoehorned apps that are leading the charge on mobile. It's the totally new kinds of apps that didn't make sense until this platform came along.
You're absolutely right. Kindof like of your hammer is Java, then everything looks like a thumb. In that sense I guess his post is talking to what's hot right now.
