comment Combining Settings and About screens in a mobile web app
In this modern world the OS takes care of checking for updates. So there's really no use cases left for displaying such info within the app. If you insist, then the Settings is probably a good place to park them.

comment What are the reasons why the mobile apps market is more developed and active than the desktop one?
Why the downvote? I also wonder why on mobile many web sites eventually turn into dedicated native apps where on desktop the trend is the opposite: native software turns into web apps.

comment How would you solve the accidentally-launching problem of the Mac OS dock?

comment OS X: what menu bar to show when a modal dialog is shown
Let me guess, your programmers use java/swing? On Mac OS, the menu bar is not associated to the window, in contradiction to the swing implementation.
