Apple and Google have no incentive to perfect this. They want people writing native apps.<p>This is what excites me about something like Firefox OS (<a href="http://rawkes.com/articles/there-is-something-magical-about-firefox-os" rel="nofollow">http://rawkes.com/articles/there-is-something-magical-about-...</a>) -- Mozilla has the incentive to make mobile apps a first class citizen. If JavaScript/CSS/HTML is "native", then they have no choice but to get it right.<p>Plus, when it comes to standards, Mozilla already has a foot in the door.

What's the deal with these posts? First the one from Facebook and now this one?<p>If it's too hard for you to differentiate between a scroll and a touch, there's about 210923423234 libraries out there that can make that differentiation for you.

Another high-level event we need is scroll-end, or better, scroll-to-end. On scroll is very expensive on mobile and leads to lagginess.

If you're getting tired of all the useless UI when reading Google Plus posts too, i've written a smal Userscript to remove it:<p><a href="http://www.haykranen.nl/2012/09/16/a-simple-greasemonkey-userscript-to-remove-all-google-plus-ui/" rel="nofollow">http://www.haykranen.nl/2012/09/16/a-simple-greasemonkey-use...</a>
