20/1  What people try out with Feed2Mobile

Category: Mobile Content    By editor at 11:28
When we started Feed2Mobile some weeks ago, we thought about offering an easy and straightforward way for people to get from a blog to a mobile website - with a QR Code on top - to offer a similar experience as with the mobile Kaywa Blogs. Although the mobile Kaywa blogs have several additional features like comments, archive, gallery etc., the post content seemed ok for a start.

Our second idea was that people can search existing feeds, create new ones and even bookmark their feeds right on their mobile.

Albeit blogs are still the main content providers, we see some interesting new usage patterns. For one thing there are some blogs or sites which deliver MP3's and 3GP Video's right to your phone. Examples I found interesting were SCIAMBOLA, Today's Blog Music - The Hype Machine, TPN :: The Alternative Music Show for music and as an example Elektrischer Reporterfor 3GP Videos.

Even more interesting though was that french guy from Chronopost which put his parcel's RSS feed on Feed2Mobile. Then there is the weather forecast from West Springfield, Massachusetts or the Earthquakes over 2.5+ at USGS .

Even if Feed2Mobile is still in it's infancy, it seems to give people an easy to use tool and we can learn from their needs.
