The other day I posted about the WordPress Mobile Edition plug-in and Angad was helpful enough to leave me a comment telling me about the Ultimate Gamer’s Pack plug-in.

Now, if you are like me, at first I was like, “Gamer’s pack?” But then when I visited the page I got it. The Ultimate Gamer’s Pack is a WordPress plug-in that automatically renders an optimized version of your site when visitors come to your site on a Nintendo Wii, DS-Lite, or Sony PSP (Apple iPhone version coming soon).

This is another helpful plug-in as the development world starts to truly embrace the staggering number of different devices that a site could be viewed on.

WordPress for Mobile Users
January 9th, 2007

Over a Wisdump, Scrivs has posted an article in reference to designing for browsers outside of a desktop/laptop environmentj. A few of the comments mention something in regards to developing a design of their WordPress blog for mobile users.

There is not necessarily a need to do this unless you want to spend the time doing it. Fortunately for us all, Alex King has developed a plug-in for WordPress that is for mobile browsers called WordPress Mobile Edition.

WordPress Mobile Edition provides a mobile browser friendly interface for your WordPress blog. It’s *almost* XHTML compliant. You can see it in action by visiting my site in a mobile browser.

It’s quick and makes for a mobile-friendly site!
