As the Web goes to an open, content-centered existence, the future of design is unknown. For years, the design was based on typical print design practices, but the web is not and has never been a static medium. We are witnessing a resurgence of rich experiences that focus on user interaction, unlike the simple web design from the past.

The world is now moving in to smart phones and mobile devices which led to a focus-shift from traditional web design to mobile web design. The rise of smart palm devices has accelerated the need for the designers to say fit in the web design and development domain.

Over the past few years, mobile web usage has considerably increased to the point that web developers and designers can no longer afford to ignore it. In wealthy countries, the shift is being fueled by faster mobile broadband connections and cheaper data service.
