I suppose if I were really serious about the “Mobile Web,” I would start by making this site mobile friendly. Unfortunately, I tried to access it with my lovely new Sony Ericsson V800 and found it completely mobile non-friendly. I should, in theory, be able to rectify this using CSS media queries. More soon.

As I feared, this is completely non-trivial. Both because there is no good definitive documentation for usage of the media query facility and also because Blogger.com’s CSS templates are not so friendly to this approach. Feh.
It’s worse than I thought. Opera is the only browser with Media Query support — even my brand-spanking-new Spiffy Sony-Ericsson V800 doesn’t support it. So back to square one. Sigh…
