PAMP

Continuing with the mobile web server theme, the underpinnings of the previously mentioned project are available as part of various open source projects. What’s more, the ability to now host PHP (and not just python) websites on your phone (huh?) is so there, but still begs the immediate question: why?

Now there be some answers to that, but then, just how feasible is this? I mean, just how practical is having a full-blown CMS web application hosted on your phone? Mmmm.. that aside, i still see quite a bit of usefulness already. For one thing, the world of mobile data interchange just got looped onto its head, in a public kind of way. Just engage reverse and let the creativity flow 😀

Mobile Web Server

The title should pretty much sum it up. It’s new, and if preliminary “user” reports are anything to go by, very scary. I mean, why would you want to open your phone up and turn it into a web server for all the world to access? Heck. Why not? 🙂

So Nokia have been working on this tech (still in beta, like most good things) and have published it at http://mymobilesite.net. And it rocks. Installed it and have my mobile web server running around with me on my Nokia N81. Check it out.

Of course, i don’t run it 24×7 (yet) so you may get an “offline” response. For now (because of the scary factor) i still keep a close eye on it. But i would encourage you to spend 15 minutes and set yourself up. And then just think of the possibilities….
