Are you ready for mobile customers?
At the last Web Users Group, it was mentioned that mobile requirements and testing would be coming by the summer. It is our hope that as folks begin redesigning their web sites that they think mobile-first and build their sites to work as well for their mobile customers as they do for their traditional desktop/laptop browser customers.
