Converts any format to mobile Web with Google Mobilize
Google continues to make things easier to which we connect to the Internet through a mobile device. This time it is a service that turns any website in a format much lighter, optimized for devices with a small screen (and very expensive data plans). His name is Google mobilize, and according Zebus resembles a program that already existed for some time, Squeeze. I only knew her website, Skweezer.net, which does the same but online.
But the Google Mobilize is much more work. I tried to convert several pages, and the results are very good. We only version lets you choose text or images. And instead of the entire back page, divided into parts that can go sailing on one by one. In each part we have links to the previous and next, as well as the option to switch between version with or without images. It is very useful and convenient to use since the Palm.

I disagree. I think it is better Skweezer and the Google copied its concept. Google's philosophy is "do not do no wrong," but they seem to like Microsoft this time.
Skweezer takes all the credit for being the first to do so. Google got an idea that was good and improved. And Opera has copied as is the idea to Google in its Opera Mini browser.
I also seems to me too ethical, but it is the currency of exchange today. In the end the number of users who use each one will be the determining factor. And just as usual in the story of big fish that eats the kid.
Hmmm. I hope that Skweezer is bought by another company to compete. We still disagree that Google is "better".
What I see in the Google service as an improvement, is to divide the resulting page in parts, so as not to saturate the mobile device if we are turning a page very long.
I would like nothing more than to see Skweezer to challenge Google. Always went out of the competition to gain users.

Greetings!
Very good also optimizes the images automatically, looks good from the PDA and even better since the PSP.
I love the job I have as a home page on my TX and I have worked very well, I think it is an excellent idea for improving say the pages that contain large amounts of graphics ...
