A new Planet is born
In the vast cyberspace of the Web galaxy, a new Planet is born: Planet Mobile Web weighs 20 blog feeds (and growing), seems to be pretty active already, and hopefully has a bright future before her.
I’m pretty excited this has come to fruition; I think it will be a useful service for the mobile Web community, and I know at least that it has already allowed me to discover a number of interesting blogs I didn’t know about, blogs which themselves have pointed me to topics, sites and services that were off the map for me.
Planet Mobile Web, welcome to this Universe :)
(and thanks Planet Planet for making it so easy to build this !)

Dom, thanks for all your work on the Mobile Web Initiative. I am excited to get more into the Mobile Web.
Thank you also for the Planet Mobile Web. It has helped me to find some blogs that I was not aware of.

Nice idea. Shame it doesn’t have its own feed!
Still, it’s a good library of sources (& a few I didn’t have ;-) )

Actually, it has its own feed as well, although it was only available through the <link> convention; I’ve added a visible link to it as well.

Cool. Google Reader didn’t spot it before.

Any plans to add a RSS feed in the future along with the ATOM feed. Many feed readers, including mine do not read the ATOM feed.

In fact, there has been an RSS feed since day 1, but for some reason, it never got advertized:

It now is properly linked from the HTML page. Thanks for the notice!

I also noticed when looking at the source code of the the Planet Mobile Web it has I thought it would be a cool way to get more visitors to the Planet if the robots followed our posts and we got the visitors they would generate.
A BIG thanks for the RSS link, now I can keep track of everyones posts on my Reader.
