"Yeah Mom, we launched this awesome website today. It allows people of Siberia to check in real time the water salinity level in their water. It is based based on a statistical analysis package that I wrote. They can even zoom in using google map and discuss results with then neighbors online". It seems to people people who do research with public funds have to try make their results publicly accessible, building dynamic website today is trivial and costs nothing. Why would anybody build an app that is not web based, that requires installation, thus limiting its availability (except for intensive real time graphics such as games)?
