<h4>Insights and best practices in the mobile world</h4>
While I have covered <a href="http://ift.tt/2brl7H1">mobile UX with a general resource list</a> in the past, I’ve returned to this topic in light of the <a href="http://ift.tt/1pGBZiH">explosion of growth in mobile payment</a>, <a href="http://ift.tt/2dacsMv">personalized chat</a> and <a href="http://ift.tt/2jpyCOt">mobile commerce via app ecosystems</a>.
