Mobile Web Best Practices Working Group News

We have decided to extend the deadline for public feedback on mobileOK Basic Tests 1.0 to March 13th. We are genuinely seeking YOUR feedback on this specification -- one that we think will play an important part in the future of the Web on mobile devices. Imagine if, as a user of the Web on your phone, you didn't have to guess any more if a Web site was going to be mobile-friendly. Imagine if the capability to discover mobile-friendly content was built in to every search engine, every mechanism where content could be brought to your attention. By putting a series of definitive tests around the Mobile Web Best Practice guidelines that this group has already produced, we hope to create a baseline for what mobile friendly content is and how it can be detected. But we can't do it without your help. The Mobile Web Best Practices group needs the help of the general public to get its work done. If you're a mobile Web expert, we need your expertise. Please take a look at this document. Challenge us on our assumptions. Show us ways we could optimize what we're already doing. Point out gaps -- things we could be testing for but aren't.
