News Aggregator TechMeme Mobile Viewing Choices: Mini vs. Mobile

If you have a Droid, iPhone or Pre (the “cool” phones these days), tech news aggregator Techmeme has an updated mobile friendly web view for you…

Droid, iPhone, and Pre: meet the new Techmeme Mobile

Fortunately for me, the new Techmeme Mobile web view supplements the older and still available Techmeme Mini web view. The newer Techmeme Mobile view has a slicker look and lets you read the first bits of text associated with a tech news item. However, the older Techmeme Mini view lets you see more news headlines on a single screen and even provides the age (in minutes) of some of the newer items. Both views have the problem of leading you to news items with non-mobile friendly web pages. But, the Droid, iPhone and Pre all do a good job of rendering non-mobile friendly websites.

I’m still trying to decide which views to use. You can find Techmeme Mini at…
