PhoneFavsRecently I’ve spotted yet another mobile bookmarking service called PhoneFavs. The idea is, as with similar services, to provide users with an easy way to store and manage their favorite mobile websites. The sharing component is also integrated, hence you’ll be able to allow your friends and/or colleagues to access all or only selected parts of your bookmarks…

PhoneFavs is free — it’s the advertising from where they want to get their money — and in addition to storing your favorites, the service also features a handpicked mobile link directory, and a “mobilizer” which automatically adapts standard web pages for improved viewing on smaller screen devices. And while we certainly see value in both add-on services, I’ll keep relying on Opera Mini for my “mobilizing” needs. :)

Anyway, to check out PhoneFavs, simply point your mobile web browser to www.phonefavs.com or www.pfavs.com and take it from there.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
