    TvProgrammi.com goes mobile! 

    TvProgrammi.com, the Italian TV guide, finally has its mobile version!

    TvProgrammi mobile

    If you have a phone supporting J2me (MIDP 2.0), you can download its first version directly from http://www.tvprogrammi.com.

    Navigation is really straightfoward:

    • 1 .. 9 keys allow channel switching
    • left/right keys change the selected date
    • up/down keys scroll the program text
    • left soft key updates programs informations
    • right soft key closes the application

    This version is not suitable for devices with small displays (let’s say, with a width of less than 128px), but for those a new version will be released soon.

    Web Compatibility Test for Mobile Browsers 

    Mobile browsers are really grown up, and it’s a clear symptom of this the fact that W3C published a Compatibility Test for Mobile Browsers (found via Ajaxian). You can simply launch test page within your mobile browser and you’ll get visual feedbacks about supported features, including:

    • XMLHTTPRequest object support
    • <canvas> element with its Javascript API
    • contenteditable, to allow rich content editing
    • transparent PNG support
    • Dynamic SVG
    • CSS3 selectors

    Test page will give you a visual feedback like this:

    Where each green square means that a feature is supported on your phone, while it’s not with a red one.
    If you want to give it a try just point your browser to this url: http://tinyurl.com/37e33p, or use this QR code:

    Faceroller: mobile geotagged microblogging 

    FaceRoller is a micro-blogging service with integrated picture and geo-locating funcionalities: practically, you snap a photo, write what you want and tell where you are, and the job is done :) and, if you’ve got a Flickr or Facebook account, your pictures will be automatically uploaded there.

    It has also a J2me mobile client to upload photos when you’re on the go, directly from your java enabled phone.

    If you want to give it a try signup on FaceRoller and then download the j2me client.

    We’re still developing and expanding its concept, so comments and feedback are welcome!
