It seems most of the mobile websites are in Russell Beattie’s doghouse. The bad experience with WAP 1.0 and lack of seriousness is one of the main reasons why many are missing out a huge opportunity. I could not agree more with Russell’s remark that “within the 18 months, the mobile web is going to become the next big thing.” Ever since I put up GigaOM Mobile, it has started accounting for nearly 4% of my total traffic. That caught me by a surprise to be honest. I mean all these people are actually accessing the site on the go. No RSS fudging numbers. [Of course there could be some folks who are on dial-up and are accessing the lite-weight version of my blog.]
