Microsoft has made its My Phone web portal available to the general public (previously it was available as a limited invitation-only service). Still in beta, the service allows users to access, manage and backup personal information from their Windows Mobile smartphone are PDA.
The whole process can be set to be done automatically, removing all the hassle once all the parameters are on place. The service is secure, meaning that only you and eventually other people that have your password can access your data.
For the record, when we say personal information, we mean contacts, appointments, text messages as well as some other information stored on the phone. Moreover, you could also keep (upload) your photo and video files on Microsoft’s servers and access them from wherever you happen to be.
Finally, it’s important to add that Microsoft is working on the My Phone mobile client which should be released during the next couple of weeks…

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.
