Dave Winer inspired me with his mini-sites (pda.scripting.com bbcriver.com nytimesriver.com) he created specially for browsing on mobile devices like smartphones and pda’s. I added some funtionality to opmlmanager.com which makes it easy to browse your opml online and read your feeds. Looks like nothing special on your computerscreen, but works great on your mobile device! If you have a smartphone or pda and have internetaccess then you know that it’s not always easy to navigate your favorite sites on the tiny screen. You have to scroll to a whole lot of crap before you find the main content.
Opmlmanager now offers a solution for that. Just sign up for an account, add the rss or atom feeds of your favorite sites, or import an opml-file (almost every newsreader, aggregator will let you export your subscriptions in opml format) and bookmark the mobile browsing address in your phone: http://www.opmlmanager.com/mob/username.
Give it a try and let me know what you think!
