To push the wider adoption of its domain extension, dotMobi has introduced http://dev.mobi to help developers optimize their content for the mobile audience. Among the things you should read on the new site is the dotMobi Developer Guide, a practical tool for web developers which outlines mobile Internet standards developed by dotMobi in conjunction with W3C. Also important to check out is the site-compliance testing tool called “ready.mobi.” Using it developers can easily perform more than 30 separate tests on any individual .mobi site and determine how well their site will work on a mobile phone. Plus, there are more how-to guides, tools and interactive forums on dev.mobi.
Now go and make us some neat mobile sites. Personally, I don’t care if the site has a “.mobi” domain, or “m” subdomain (“m.domain”) — all I want is the high quality content easily accessible from my mobile phone.
