Mobilizing Your Web Site
The Austin Wireless Alliance has a great free event for you on Monday that will address the mobilization of your website.
The Nokia Web Runtime (Dan Podwall, Nokia)
Web Runtime (WRT) enables anyone with Web development and design skills to create exciting Internet experiences for mobile users in just hours or days. hether you want to provide a one-click interface to your Web service or add value by creating mashups of information from various sources, WRT makes it possible. From a technical perspective, WRT adds a Web-application runtime environment to the popular Web Browser for S60, which enables S60 devices to run widgets. Like desktop widgets, WRT widgets are lightweight mobile applications developed using standards-based Web technologies, such as XHTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Ajax. In fact, you can port desktop widgets to WRT with very little effort, and you can use your existing authoring tools to create and package your work.
