NCAA Fans - get your fix on the Yahoo! mobile site!

Tuesday, March 18th, 2008

Yahoo has launched a mobile NCAA tournament web site, which will feature “top-tier” content from Yahoo! Sports and Rivals.com.  You’ll also have the ability to sign up for mobile alerts if you wish.

Mobile users are also able to access all of the action with any Internet-enabled device by visiting the Yahoo! Men’s College Basketball mobile website  (http://m.yahoo.com/ncaa)  to get the latest about the tournament. Users can browse the mobile web on their device and take advantage of the rich features developed for both the Men’s College Basketball mobile widget and the innovations present in Yahoo! oneSearch, regardless of whether their phone is a walk-on freshman or the full-ride member of the starting five. With features like mobile alerts, Yahoo! oneSearch and top-tier content from Yahoo! Sports and Rivals.com, users will have their mobile devices with them at all times to get the best content during the tournament.

Mobile version of LinkedIn now available

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

If you are a member of LinkedIn, they now have a beta mobile version of the site - http://m.linkedin.com.

Keep in mind, while the mobile version offers a search bar and the ability to view contacts, updates and your own profile, it is far from having the capabilities of the fully functional site.  Until they develop it further, you won’t be able to answer a question, update your profile, accept or decline invitations or reply to a job posting…

Still, for the networking professional, LinkedIn Mobile will come in handy.  Developers at LinkedIn said they’ll evaluate which platforms (iPhone, Blackberry, Windows Mobile, etc) they’ll develop for based on user and market demands.
