MobileMonday Silicon Valley: Web apps vs. Native Apps panel

Being on the board of the DC chapter of Mobile Mondays, and a recent transplant to Silicon Valley, I decided to attend a Mobile Monday event out here, which had a panel discussing mobile web apps vs. native apps. The number of people attending was staggering (some said CTIA being held in the same area had a lot to do with it, but still!) especially compared to the size crowd the dcMOMO group typically draws.

Here's the panel list, and the video is below:
