Content publishers get free mobile site with Mippin Maker

I had a note in from Scott Beaumont at Mippin to let me know that their Mippin Maker tool is now available. Essentially, if you’d like to create a perfectly tailored rendition of your site for every mobile handset, Mippin Maker is for you. It’s free, too. (You do actually need to have a site with an RSS/ATOM newsfeed in order to take advantage of Mippin Maker.)

I’ve got one already, thanks to the team there. You can see it at mippin.com/smstextnews. Here’s how it looks rendered on my desktop browser:

I decided to try out the Mippin Maker process with my brother’s Bladewatch blog. All I did was type in www.bladewatch.com into the Mippin Maker URL box and *immediately*, I mean IMMEIDATELY, this page appeared:

Smart! That was it created. It’s got a temporary URL — mippin.com/mippin4030 — I imagine if my brother ‘claims’ the site, he’ll be able to change that to something a little more relevant.

It really is that fast. Give it a go with your blog.
