I’ve been on a mobile web kick lately. I’m really starting to see how the mobile/location aware web can unfold over the next 10 years.

To get started, I figured I’d spend five minutes getting maybe5 mobile. I came across MoFuse. They claim a mobile version of your site in minutes. Really? Just minutes?

Actually, it took about 4 minutes, and that’s including the time it took me to add another CNAME entry to my DNS server so you can access it from m.maybe5.com. Even DNS changes are fast nowadays!

At first glance, it seems like a really nice product. The site looks good on my BlackBerry and their iPhone widget(I hate that term) looks pretty slick. Here it is below so you can see for yourself.

Between MoFuse and the wordpress mobile admin plugin, I can manage and view my blog all from my BlackBerry.

The evil Mr. Burns-like figure at Fido is slobbering over the new money they will make from my increased data usage. “Excellent.”

This is truly amazing. This text input method wouldn’t take any explanation for anyone to get started. This is so simpIe it should end up being adopted by all phone manufacturers.

My prediction. This will be on an iPhone in the near future. That is, if Apple is smart enough. This could actually be the end to the blackberry qwerty keyboard.
