Let’s examine the state of mobile app design as it evolves and becomes a great part of our daily lives. We use apps every day to buy things and order services, to communicate with friends, search for information, and entertain ourselves.

To put this into context, Summit currently occupies a space equivalent to a football field.

Have you ever stopped to ponder the Universe? It’s overwhelming, really. One billion trillion stars, thirty billion planets, ten billion galaxies; and then there is me. One speck of dust in this great big cosmos. Today I found myself laying under the Colorado sky. Staring at the darkness as the stars blinked back at me and the moonlight kissed my cheeks goodnight. At three AM everyone in my little town of Erie had long been asleep. I looked to my left and there sat my dog Jax, he would have rather been asleep. Yet he sat with me under that clear night sky as I lost track of time and my restless mind jumped from one thought to another.
