Bwana.org Mobile

In: Default

After reading about Digg mobile yesterday, I noticed a comment on lifehacker from the author saying that he had released the source behind his magic. I decided since I’m the uber mobile geek now with my Nokia E61, I might as well convert my site to a mobile version.

So I did. It took a little hacking to get working but it wasn’t too hard. Apparently, this php scripts relies on fopen() to get the site’s data. I just altered the code a bit to use curl instead since my host, Dreamhost, doesn’t support allow_url_fopen. The result is a nice looking site on your mobile device. Thanks Eugenia
