WOWNESS!!!
Two thumbs up from this cow_grrrl to Tyler Reed and his gathering of gorgeous geeks (Denham Coote, Matt Gerri) at Younique for creating this AWESOME new WordPress plugin!
Basically, the new MobilePress plugin, which I’ve just installed on this blog will allow you to view justB[coz] on your mobile handset in a bandwidth- and time-saving format.
Go on – give it a try! http://www.justbcoz.co.za/headspace
For WordPress theme developers, sites can now be customised for individual mobile browsers. Fabulous 🙂
Allan Kent was one of the first to download and install this plugin – check out his blog at MediaFrenzy for the first screenshots of MobilePress in action on the iPhone and various Nokia N95 browsers.
w00t w00t!
Well done Younique … you guys rock 😀
Methinks I smell the tip of an ice berg here.
Erm…Okay?
@Dad … The WP framework is actually pretty light and fast in comparison to a lot of CMS applications. What adds to the overhead is the use of a heavy theme or extra plugins, or any widgets, buttons and banners that have to make third party server requests. I’ve tried to keep those to a minimum. You can scroll down to the bottom of the screen to see the load time for each page …
Really nice and works well. Loads faster than on my PC. Maybe one should also have a cut down version for PC?
Hey Leez 🙂
MobilePress is not a WP mobile application. It’s simply a plugin that you install into your WP blog to allow users on mobiles to view your blog in a much faster, simpler format.
Give it a shot – it’s super easy to install (just download, unzip and copy the folder to your wp-content/plugins directory, and then activate it through your dashboard “Plugins” menu.) There’s no configuration required. It just WORKS!
Finally!!!!!!!! I’ve been loooking for something like this for ages. Blogger has a mobile blog apllication but unitl now WordPress had just not taken the inititaive.
Once I’ve figured out how it all works, and upgraded to a decent handset, I will download (?) it.
Thanks.
@Tyler … my huge pleasure, you guys surely deserve it!
*Everyone* needs to install this …
Ms. Cow Grrrl… thanks for all the kind words! 🙂 Glad you enjoying the plugin. Now I can read your blog while I am on the go, yay!
