Mobile Web 2.0 "Dramatic Developments" from AT&T Really not all that dramatic....- Well, I'm sad to report that the folks over/up/down at AT&T wireless appear to not quite have their act together when it comes to what is the 'next big thing' in wireless. I had really been hoping/anticipating that the webinar they hosted on June 30 entitled "Dramatic Developments in Mobile Web Technology" was going to provide something concrete and actionable for you (and I), alas, that was not to be the case.

- Convergence still 'coming soon' for mobile web platforms
- So honestly, when I went into writing the last couple of postings about widget platforms I did not know about the webinars that had been scheduled by the folks at FierceWireless or AT&T about browsing platforms, but it's comforting to know that I'm not the only one trying to get my head around exactly what is and what isn't possible (and where things are headed) in the browser container and beyond.

- Are Widgets ready for me?
- OK, so getting back to the widget reality here. I'd like to take a look at what the platforms are, what your options are and if it's really even worth it to go there. I know that last time I got a bit distracted with the whole 'sprite' thing, but I promise to stay on track here.

- Widget Investigation leads to a 'Worst Practice' Discovery
- Nokia just wrapped up their Developer Conference in Monaco last week. Sadly, I didn't have the budget to go. Maybe you were lucky and did (or maybe you live there, lucky you!). Anyhow, one of the technologies that they're pushing these days is their WRT (Web Run Time) or Widgets for the lay person out there. This whole mobile widget thing is nothing new, but what does appear to be new is that they're gathering a steam this time.

Mobile Web Design - Beyond Simple XHTML Pages III- In recent years, widgets have been widely popularized due to the success of Yahoo! Widgets (http://widgets.yahoo.com) and Mac OS X Dashboard (http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/dashboard). Widget, a term that traditionally refers to operating system GUI components such as dialog boxes or pop-up windows, is also used to describe small, lightweight applications that run within a local client. These “micro” applications are very compact in both physical size and file size and usually perform only one or two simple functions.
