A solid pointer to developing on the mobile web

This book gives a great in depth look at the issues surrounding Mobile Web 2.0 development and is an essential tool in understanding this sometimes complicated space, written by two of the leading mobile experts around today.

The BEST place to start if you need one

This text does a great job of introducing the newbie to the concepts of Web 2.0 in the mobile space. The concepts, arising liuke archetypes from the collective group unconscious, form something that's as much philosophy as it is programming; equally pro user design and open architecture evangelia. The authors aren't shy with their opinions and many of them probably won't generate sustainable models, but they're fresh, in line with the current services-orientation thinking and abundant with real world instantiations. If you've given up on SOA and the snake charmer's lure of chasing perfectly integrated systems, but still believe in reusable, scalable and open services, give this a read--then pass it on.
