Mobile Web Trends - 2011

Interesting points from BuiltWith.com's Mobile Web Technology Report 2011 -

• The growth of the mobile web is staggering, with approximately 726 million people having access to a 3G mobile subscription
• The viewport meta tag was originally designed by Apple to resize the layout viewport of a website, a requirement for the mobile device to understand how the website designer has defined how the content should be displayed to the end user. Android, Windows Phone, BlackBerry and iPhone all support the viewport meta tag
• Close to 3% of the top 10,000 sites use the viewport meta tag 
• Of the top 100 sites most visited on the internet, 71 of them have content specifically designed for mobile devices. The remaining 29 either do not support mobile devices or, depending on the device, prompt the user about a device specific application.
• jQTouch is currently the most used mobile JavaScript library (38%) in the top million sites, shortly followed by JQuery Mobile (32%), both of which are extensions of JQuery, the most popular JavaScript library used on the web.
