We’ve almost missed this. It’s not the native iPhone app, but an optimized version of the International Herald Tribune’s website. You may think the non-native stuff is kinda out these days, however it’s the major news publication we’re talking about here, hence it deserves some space.
Located at iphone.iht.com, the new website is optimized to work with Safari on iPhone and iPod Touch devices. Nearly all of the content from the regular IHT.com website can be found and they (IHT.com developers) even wanted to make the experience as much as possible iPhone-ish. Hence, instead of using regular HTML pages, the entire site is built using AJAX. The result is stunning — everything seems so quick and responsive…
In case you care to know more about the development process, IHT.com’s blog has more details about it.

Dusan Belic
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.
