Hi All, Hey you probably saw Cameron Moll's book:
http://mobilewebbook.com/
when it came out. Any other dynamite resources for Mobile Web development. Things have been rather quiet on that front besides maybe going to some Trade Talks.
Maybe I'm just not paying attention then too?
Looking to create a resource list for Mobile Design.
No I didn't even buy the book. Probably a great read though, knowing Cameron.

I like the .mobi developer's guide. It was a topic at SXSWi last year, best session I went to. The guide can be found here:
http://dev.mobi/content/dotmobi-mobile-web-developers-guide

It's a free download for registered users.

Thanks G3 it was a little work to register, but looks like a great resource 91 pages...
Did they post a video of the SWSW session for this I wonder?

From the intro...
"The goal of this guide is to provide developers and site owners with enough knowledge to get started with the creation of Web content for mobile users. It covers the benefits of publishing for mobile users, how mobile delivery differs from desktop delivery and how to design for the mobile context."
Check it out for sure then.

Hmm, dunno. It was a while back. I had posted some notes on my site a while back:

I have a link to the presentation there.

Awesome G3, thanks for keeping this one on target, I started a blog post of resources.
The 134-slides in the pdf for the presentation, and the earlier guide you linked will go a long way.
Thanks again, have you had any mobi requests from clients, we havent' really gone there yet, but one of these days I'm guessing, laying the building blocks for the learning curve now won't be a bad idea.
:)

Hah, I haven't had time for clients because of my studies. Basically, if we keep doing what we do, our sites will for the most part be mobile friendly.
With small changes it is within grasp.
