Both.   I could clarify this in an update to the document, but from a browser it means
clicking on a link.  From another app it generally means an API call.  For example on Windows,
LaunchUriAsync (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/Hh701480.aspx)
Is one such API.

Not specific to smartphones.  It happens on many platforms including PCs,
Mac OSX, smartphones, etc.
