Navigation patterns in mobile web design

When design­ing for mobile, size mat­ters. You have a lim­ited amount of screen real estate to work with on small dis­plays, mak­ing it impor­tant to free up as much space as pos­si­ble to con­vey your mes­sage. Thus, nav­i­ga­tion should not take up too much space. So where do you put that navigation?

Brad Frost has done a lit­tle research on dif­fer­ent approaches to design­ing nav­i­ga­tion for respon­sive web sites. In “Respon­sive Nav­i­ga­tion Pat­terns” he takes a look the pros and cons of these, giv­ing exam­ples and links to use­ful resources.
