About Mobile Optimized... |

I was blessed with a Treo
600 about 1.5 years ago (my wife says its less of a blessing and more
of a curse since I have 24x7 email and phone in my pocket). Last February
I upgraded to a Treo 650 (my local AT&T WIreless rep swears I was
the first person in San Diego to get a Treo 650). Back when I had the
600, I would read this article or that one that mentioned a mobile version
of this site or that site. I started making bookmarks to them. Eventually,
I had over 80 bookmarks and navigating them became a pain in the rear.
That birthed a sub-domain of my primary domain... palm.nccomp.com. I
used it, and I set it as the default home page for my employees with
Treos or other smartphones. When I upgraded to my Treo 650, I didn't
have to migrate any bookmarks... I just had to go to my website. About
a month ago, I checked the weblogs and saw that I was averaging 20K
to 30K hits a month... not a lot, but a whole lot more than I ever expected.
So about a month ago, I bought MobileOptimized.com.
I decided that if people wanted to use it, then let 'em. There's no
advertising on the site... and there never will be. I check it weekly
for dead links and add new links weekly, and sometimes daily. More recently,
I've started journaling my experiences with my Treo and fixes or resolutions
to issues I've had with it. Below is a short list: |
