This week's infographic feature comes from Google, The New Multi-Screen World: Understanding Cross-Platform Consumer Behavior.
To clarify, sequential screening means moving from one device to another to complete a single goal, simultaneous refers to using at the same time.
Smartphones tend to be the starting point, but that may be due to the higher ownership rates compared to tablets.
Google found that search is a key component to sequential behavior. Demand driven from TV, for example, leads to search activity on a mobile device. Perhaps we'll see more connection points in the future, such as QR codes on TV screens or smart devices that can otherwise "speak" to each other that can bypass search.
Regardless of with which screens conversion takes place, responsive design and cross-device support is becoming more and more important, especially if your company uses TV, radio or print advertising.
