Hi,
I do respect Rich Gubby’s work on Wapple Plugin which is certainly not easy. But Wapple plugin communicates to external server to do various tasks which I personally don’t prefer.

I taught in a simple way.

Why not create a mobile specific theme and have a plugin which will make sure to display this mobile theme to your mobile phone users!

So I created IamMobiled Mobile Plugin and Blue Heart Mobile Theme

Here are some key features:
1) Comes with a mobile theme “Blue Heart”
2) Automatic mobile detection
3) Images are optimized for mobile view
4) Make money through integrated ad system.
5) Optimized for touch screen phones
6) Mobile users can even leave comments
7) Mobile users can search for contents.

Please check it out and let me know your feedback and suggestions at haress@iammobiled.com

After reading this post, I checked them out. Installed the plug-in, and a day later got an email from Rich asking if I needed help with anything. I had it installed, but he suggested to carry my theme over, and then volunteered to go in and make a few quick changes.

Big props to Wapple. Highly recommend. Great, great service.

Thanks for bringing attention to this, Danny.

And what I'm noticing is that the instances of praise are mostly about service.

What I really like is that it's not just limited to the negative experiences any more as well, John – seems to be more people willing to praise and share the good, as opposed to bitch and moan about the bad. And that can never be a bad thing.

Case and point. When someone has an amazing experience with a product or service, they tell others. But not just once. They tell it thousands of times per day – in blog posts like this. The social web has turned the volume up on what we've been doing for a few hundred years – making consumer decisions based on recommendations of people we trust.

Thanks, Danny!
