I want the web on my phone, period. Responsive design gives me the full website with the same information architecture, with the bonus of a more mobile-friendly layout.&lt;p&gt;I&apos;m using it for all my web design work (well, as much as clients will allow me), and I hope everyone else will, too!</text></comment>

I&apos;m a big fan of it though and I don&apos;t think there&apos;s anything wrong with fads in design -- designers don&apos;t want to keep doing the same stuff over and over again (I presume).&lt;p&gt;Maybe you&apos;re a busy designer and don&apos;t have time (or desire) to always experiment with new techniques. If all of a sudden your industry peers getting excited about something, it&apos;s like a signal that says it&apos;s okay for you to try this out. I&apos;m not sure if it&apos;s a &quot;make efficient use of my time&quot; heuristic about what you should devote your attention to, or a &quot;nobody ever got fired for buying IBM&quot; safe bet thing. Probably a little of both.</text></comment>
