Yahoo! may make blunders elsewhere in the computing world, but
they've always had their head screwed on when it comes to mobile.
Yahoo! has just launched its next-gen mobile home page, which you can
find at new.m.yahoo.com in
your phone's web browser. Some screens below to give you a flavour, but
on first look they seem to have done a good job integrating news
sources, weather and traditional mobile information with a new 'Social
pulse' panel, in which feeds from the likes of Facebook, Twitter and
Friendster can be amalgamated and presented in chronological order.
Admittedly, the fonts are a bit too small by default on the Nokia
5800, but they should be fine for most traditional mobile screens.
Comments welcome if you've tried this new mobile home page. Certainly
worth bookmarking, at any rate!
