My opinion, for what it's worth, (maybe not much) is that you should have a mobile client. i.e. firefox business model.

I don't mean you should write your own browser from scratch, but use the S60 browser control APIs to put a UI on top of their existing browser code, and "magically" redirect everything to mowser from the mowser mobile client. right now, you rely on users doing that manually too much.

the link to mowse.rcom is wrong :)

Here's roughly how to auto-mobilize a blogger.com blog (see http://gnugos60.blogspot.com/). Not perfect, and still a few issues with the qr code one in particular.

(I hope it keeps all the html correctly when I press "post")

To get the mobile web icon:

To get the QR code:

Of course they are both using the images on mowser.com. Not sure if you like that or not, but since it's theoretically driving traffic to your site, I think it's probably a fair trade ;) well, not much traffic in my case :-)

I can't figure out how blogger widgets works well enough to get the qrcode nicely into my blog sidebar. In theory wrapping it in b:includable, and later b:include it should work, but it's just not showing up, so I left it off for now. If I just dump the html into there it shows & works fine, but ruins the layout. I stuck the html on the unused http://symbiangratis.blogsp... just to see it working. Works from a S60 phone.

The url for the qrcode image is a bit ugly. it would be nice to have http://mowser.com/qr/myurlhere, same as for http://mowser.com/web/myurl...

Mowser.com needs some tuning for rendering pages with mowser qr codes on them. For now it just shows [ image ] text. see http://www.mowser.com/web/h...
