As more users access the Web from their phones and other handhelds, web developers need to learn techniques for targeting these new
devices.
Sites such as Twitter, Facebook, and Google target mobiles with their services and products.
Companies use mobile
services to provide staff access to their applications while away from a computer.
This book is a complete, practical guide to writing mobile websites and
applications.
You will learn how to create mobile-friendly websites, adapt your content to the capabilities of different devices, save bandwidth with
compression, and create server-side logic that integrates with a mobile front end.
You will also see other methods for integrating your web application
with mobile technology: sending and receiving MMS and SMS messages, accepting mobile payments, and working with voice calls to provide spoken interaction.
The book illustrates every technique with practical examples, showing how to use these development methods in the real world.
Along
the way we show how an example pizza delivery business can use these methods to open up to the mobile web.
Whether you want to provide customers
and users of your public website with new ways to access your services, or build applications so that staff can stay up to date while on the road, this book will show you all
you need to build a powerful mobile presence.
