Usability 
The Washington Post is widely regarded as one of the two best US newspapers, the other being the New York Times. Compared with the Times, the Post has been slow to develop its web and especially its mobile web presence. Last week the paper took a step to improve it's mobile web offering with a complete redesign of mobile.washington.com
The revamped and expanded site was develeoped with the help of Norway's MobileTech. It uses browser detection and adaptation to vary layout, page and image sizes to suit everything from basic feature phones to the iPhone. The tabbed top navigation area is attractive and easy to navigate. Content consists of local, national and world news sections plus separate politics, business, local, entertainment and sports pages and a photo gallery.
All sections have been expanded and their are now over 50 full length articles on the mobile site plus items from several of the paper's editorial blogs.
Unlike the New York Times, which is popular worldwide, the majority of the Post subscribers are local to the Washington D.C. metropolitan area where it is the top paper in circulation. The new mobile site focuses on the Post's strength in local coverage with a local section called "Metro" which has extensive local news coverage including live traffic updates.
Another tradional Post strength is it's coverage of the Washington political scenne whichis reflected in the mobile site's extensive political news coverage and a number of opioniated editorials on national issues and pending legislation.
It's great to finally have a mobile version of the Washinton Post that is finally worthy of the paper's quality and prestige.
