Generally speaking, long-form editorial content like actual stories, video and slideshows do well across the board because the tablet is a lean-back device, where consumers aren’t looking for short snippets of content like they are on a mobile phone, for example.

The figures come just days after Blackberry boss Thorsten Heins predicted tablets would be dead by 2018. In an interview with Bloomberg, the chief executive said: "In five years I don't think there'll be a reason to have a tablet any more.... 

Jeff Domansky's insight:
