Drudge ReportMatt Drudge's news site now has a mobile edition, Drudge is credited with many scoops including being the first to report former president Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky. The Drudge PC site contains headlines, news photos and short comments followed by links to full stories on mostly mainstream news sites. The mobile version is the same except that images aren't displayed on the front page, replaced by links to them. When you click on a link that goes to an external news story your are warned that it's not optimized for mobile and given the option to email the link or follow it.

There is another mobile version (jongales.com/drudge/) of the Drudge Report, launched in 2004 by Jon Gales which uses screen scraping to grab and reformat the text and links of the PC site into something more mobile friendly. The new official site has much smaller page and is better suited for mainstream mobiles.
