David Harper CEO Winksite on Responsible Formatting of Mobile Sites

Yikes. I am not alone. David Harper from Winksite (another mobile web site maker that I am about to test) and I spoke on the phone.

He made me aware of this: http://wurfl.sourceforge.net/manifesto/

Apparently my issues of the formatting redirection to mobile site thingy is common knowledge and well know. There is even a manifesto on it. These issues of transcoding and redirection seem to be a huge problem.

I mean I know this as we all wrote about Vodafone/ Novarra etc. But now I have experienced it first hand I am gutted. Thank-god that there are people actively trying to sort this out and I am not a developer but will be implementing some of things that Rich and David suggest to change the gomonews.mobi site.

Thanks David
