I am currently attending the monthly University of North Carolina
Webmasters' group meeting and the discussions for today revolve around
our enterprise-level mobile applications and sites. The meeting is
relatively informal but the depth and breadth of expertise is pretty
vast.
UNC recently unveiled their mobile site (
http://m.unc.edu) and their
new application for mobile devices so that they could easily link to
various RSS feeds, deeper portions of the mobile site, maps of the
campus, directories, etc... After overcoming numerous obstacles such
as user-interface in a mobile world, content management, and
identifying the target user market, UNC has created a single page of
icons that link to the most commonly requested/used content. I think
that is really the main theme behind developing for mobile devices.
