Making this blog mobile friendly
The result of all of this is pretty satisfying:
in Blazer and
in Opera Mini.
So, a few conclusions from this exercice:
- it ain’t very hard, but it ought to be still a bit less so
- when doing a single version for mobile/non-mobile, you need to get rid of anything that isn’t directly on point for the current page (in my case, the tabular calendar and the list of categories); not a great loss here, but this is probably the most important point to consider to choose between one version vs several adapted versions
- do clean up your digital photos, esp. when you thumbnail them
- the CSS @media hack described above is certainly a pattern I expect to use quite often, making CSS a pretty powerful tool for simple adaptation

Awesome technique on serving up XHTML Basic. I have never really written anything in XHTML Basic before and was really confused until now about how I was going to make it work.
