Take Back the Mobile Web
April 7th, 2006 | Published in Out Loud
Scott Rafer asked me to create some graphics for a campaign he’s launching against Google (and apparently AOL, too now) pre-emptively stripping out (“simplifying”) web pages for mobile phones through their mobile search. Of course, Google’s not the first company to have ever heard of the mobile web (surprise!) and Rafer among thousands of others, already have mobile versions of their sites—with advertising—that Google is running roughshod over.
Way not cool. I guess it’s hard to “do no evil” when you’re stomping around the cybersphere in size 32,000 shoes.
I did this as a favor to Scott, since although I’ve never met him, we have mutual friends in common, and I’m a big believer in karma (in lieu of actual social networking :).
