Microsoft website in 1995 and 20 years later – it has come a long way..

The concept of webdesign apparently even didn’t exist at that time or was probably far from the priority. At that moment none of your friends used Skype in the subway, and the idea of making video phone calls through a 4G connected pocket-sized device was just not plausible, not even thinkable. Things have changed, such as traditional desktop yearly sales volume figures. The search giant Google even announced it plans to change its ranking method accordingly through a brand new algorithm.

2015 shows that mobile users now spend more time on the internet than computer users (Desktop and laptop), mostly through App.. Something should be added to these figures dealing with the supremacy of mobile internet habits over the traditional desktop web browsing – Mobile web usage usually gathers two different things, the pure web browsing on your mobile web browser, but also the smartphone App usage.

If we only consider those who use internet through a web-browser, the computer (Desktop/Laptop) remains number one source of connection. By mixing web-browsing and App usage, 2015 become an important year, celebrating the supremacy of mobile internet.
