Mobile Web Design

We don't specifically teach web design for mobile devices in CPT 355 - Software Development for Mobile Computers (btw, I should just stop using department names and numbers to refer to courses, they change way to often. But I'm sticking with CPT 355 on here so I can search for all the potential readins assignments I've posted about), but the challenges of the mobile web are similiar to the challenges for mobile applications running directly on the device. Here's a good quote from Jason Fried

We think the idea of write-once-run-anywhere is a pipe dream...but its not just about how something looks, its about how something works. Whats important are peoples priorities on different platforms. People on a phone and people on a computer shouldnt necessarily see the same thing with different paint, they should see an entirely different picture. Different form, different function, and different priority
