Abstract:
With the ubiquity of Twitter, Facebook and the iPhone (and a growing number of other phones) people are now more likely to click on links and land on a web page using a small-screen browser. My goal is to assemble as many ideas and opinions as possible on the topic of what information is most needed and how to adapt it to the web-capable phone, mp3 player or personal assistant.
- Stakeholders: anyone using the web to communicate, i.e., everyone.
- Roles: consultant, designer, site builder, site visitor, site owner.
- Communication vector: what else? the phone. [numbers]

Among our visits, our talk with David Corey in Santa Maria, California was enjoyable and the wines we brought home were terrific. Dave knows his way around wine and we asked him a few questions on Malbec, since he’s one of the handful of California producers using that grape.
