Eugenia<\/a>, the developer responsible for the awesome OSNews mobile site has created a mobile front<\/a> end to Digg<\/a>! The site presents the current top 40 on Digg in a compact format that displays nicely on any WAP2 phone.<\/p>\n The only thing I’m not fond of about this Digg mobile is that when you click through from the mobile page you are on the non-Mobile Digg item page which causes my phones built-in Openwave 7 browser to throw an out of memory<\/em> error. If you plan on actually following the links to Digg and possibly on to the Dugg site you will need more than the average mobile browser.<\/p>\n I thought I could just do a mashup of Mobile Digg and a transcoder like Skweezer. I tried running Digg Mobile though both Skweezer<\/a> and the Google transcoder (www.google.com\/gwt\/n<\/a>) and they both made following links on Digg Mobile possible in the built-in browser without errors. The Digg pages were pretty easy to navigate through either transcoder. I wasn’t able to actually Digg or comment, however. Same with Opera Mini. It looks like the transcoders can’t deal with all the Javascript that Digg uses.<\/p>\n It sure would be nice to have fully functional mobile Digg. Ideally it would be just for digging sites on the mobile web. You would need a way to digg a new site right from the phone. That’s a problem as I don’t think any mobile browsers support true bookmarklets. Very few even allow cutting and pasting urls. I’d like to see something like WapTags<\/a> where you search and browse through a proxy that has a link at the bottom of each screen that does a Digg. Eugenia, are you up to building something like that?<\/p>\n Yeswap.com<\/a> users, You can find\u00a0Digg Mobile filed under Technology\/Tech News.<\/p>\n Digg Mobile: cHtml<\/a> Features: Usability: <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Eugenia, the developer responsible for the awesome OSNews mobile site has created a mobile front end to Digg!
