Which uses less data the dedicated app (ie: Facebook, iMDB, ESPN) or just bookmarking them and using them through the browser?

I think either way, data consumption is roughly the same. When smartphones started, apps were the better way to go, but now, mobile sites are so compact, that there isn't any real difference between the two. In the case of Facebook, you are probably better off bookmarking the site. I have heard nothing but problems with the app.
