Thanks for pointing it out, Jenny! We’re going to be doing some more with mobile-friendly services in the oncoming months. I would also mention that the post connects to my sms-related del.icio.us links (http://del.icio.us/tgreenwalt/sms or http://del.icio.us/tgreenwalt/mobile), which I’ll likely be adding to as new applications surface.
