View Full Version : So what web content do you view offline?

Whether you use Avantgo, Isilo, Plucker, etc. I was wondering what sites you schedule to download on a daily basis? For example what news sites, Stock tickers, etc. The reason I ask is I have tried a couple of sites, Cliesource included and it just seems like a PIA to view on the Clie with frames, etc? So I was hoping there were some PDA friendly sites?

Thanks

The handheld version of Slashdot is pretty good. I also check out the handheld version of nomadness.net, but that's just because I'm addicted to my Nomad Jukebox.

Wired is one of my favourites. I also think they also have one of hte best-implemented mini-sites I've come across. I wish more designers would use Wired as a "how to do it" reference. :)

Beyond that, electronic versions of print newspapers and the such and some tech manuals.

I got a handy link via turcic.com with plucker, its a page of comics from different places. I`ll have to get the bookmark from my work puter tomorrow for ya.
turcic.com is a pretty darn good source for PDA friendly.
