Ask HN: are mobile apps the Next Big Thing for business SaaS?

1 points by fbpcm 12 years ago · 0 comments · 1 min read


When Facebook publicized their IPO one of the main risk factors [1] they had to declare was the difficulty of monetizing mobile.

A year later Facebook Mobile makes up 41% of their revenue [2]. Is Facebook an outlier or have other companies seen similar improvements? What about B2B SaaS companies - should they invest heavily into mobile?

Jason Lemkin thinks mobile is the next big thing for business SaaS [3]. What do you think?
