What the hell does facebook's HTML 5 app have to do with the subject at hand? And how is HTML 5's experience subpar for a video app like youtube?

Calm down. So you think a youtube app with a big rectangle that plays video and another one that allows you to type the url is the right experience? Video playback is just one aspect of it. search, lists, subscriptions, commenting, uploading, tagging, etc.

As for facebook's app, I was commenting about HTML5 still not being the best option for mobile app development.
