   Service - Network APIs that allow users to access and manipulate specific business or system functionality.
   App - This is now your primary service delivery context.
   Role - The people can be anonymous prospects, members, customers, partners and staff.
Continuous blended user experiences

What does it mean?
 - Web apps vs. native apps
 - Time & Budget
 - Audience (who are they & what do they do?)
 - What does the experience look like across all your channels
 - Whats the ROI?
What does this look like in the real world?
