BlogA FriendFeed Mobile Widget
We have just released a FriendFeed widget on MojiPage. It is currently available on our sandbox. It supports authentication as well as paging. It is implemented using the recently released FriendFeed API.
FriendFeed is a great way for you to stay in touch with your friends, and with MojiPage you get to stay in touch while on the go. Check it out here.
UPDATE June 16, 2008: We have merged the sandbox database with our live beta site http://mojipage.com/

I heard about this widget (and MojiPage in general) via a Steven Hodson post on his FriendFeed Watch blog. (He heard about it from Corvida a/k/a SheGeeks.) Since he doesn’t have a mobile phone, he couldn’t truly test the widget’s usability.
I tested the widget on a Motorola Q running Windows Mobile 5, and I do have to say that the page loads easily and quickly. As mobile phone users know, less is more, and clutter leads to delays that render even smaller (200k) pages barely usable. From that perspective, the FriendFeed widget worked wonderfully.
What I hope to see in a future version of the widget is more interaction. For FriendFeed users, FriendFeed is a truly interactive service where you can click on items in your feed, indicate that you like items, and even comment on items. These interactive functions are critical for true FriendFeed use, but unfortunately are lacking in this first version of the widget.
I am looking forward to a future version of the widget, and will explore some of the other capabilities in MojiPage (including the capability to incorporate any RSS feed into the page - sounds interesting).
