iPhone optimized!
I installed a great WordPress plug-in today called iWPhone (I read about it on TUAW) and it works really well! It automatically senses when someone is visiting the site via iPhone, and gives them this super-clean layout.
Oh a side note, why isn’t Apple’s web apps directory iPhone optimized? Isn’t that what the whole thing is about?
UPDATE: Well, it seems like it was causing some users to see my site “iPhone optimized” when they were just looking at it in Firefox on their computers. I’m not into that, so I’ve turned it off for now.

Come on Apple, make is work on other networks already!!!
Apple is in an odd place right now with the iPhone optimized web pages. One of the touted features of the iPhone is a full Safari browser.
“With its advanced Safari browser, iPhone lets you see web pages the way they were designed to be seen, then easily zoom in by simply tapping on the multi-touch display with your finger.”
Putting up optimized versions of their pages would be diminishing this selling point, sort of. But, those iPhone optimized pages are just so good looking. Yummy.
