A MMM-style Poll

Last night, I downloaded Nokia's Mobile Web Server onto my N75 and have to say that its am impressive piece of work. Besides being a web server, aka I can run a website off my phone, I can also use it to extend things like my calendar and contacts to friends and family and essentially have a website for direct communication.

That, of course, got me thinking about Mobile Ministry Magazine (MMM) and a route that could be taken with it. Essentially, I was thinking of taking a week to host the site on my phone, and then use the MMM Jaiku channel to supplement things when I need to take it offline (ya know , to turn off the phone or use it for something else).

But before I go off the deep end and really make MMM mobile, I wanted to ask you all of your thoughts. Here is the poll, please place your responses in the comments.
  • MMM should stay as it is and the mobile MMM just be an aside
  • MMM should go mobile as described above
  • Something else entirely (please describe)


Please understand, I am totally mobile and so doing this for a short time is mostly a test of the technology and my abilities to be productive with it. My phone will certainly have a fit with it, but this is part of the reason I get the devices I do, I like to push.

Thanks in advance, and I hope your week can start off with some innovative ways at addressing life and tech.

Hey A Wright,
Go with the second choice. You say you are only trying it for a week. After a week, it can be evaluated for ease of use.
I am under the impression technology should make one's life easier to accomplish something, not make it harder.

I vote for the mobile MMM as an add-on to the main site. I think you could use as your source of posts for that time.

@4wheeldrive: I agree that it should make things easier. And initial testing of things with it makes it seem like it would make a few things easier, especially in terms of friends and family connecting with me.

@demetri: kool.

I'll make a decision later this week. My phone is getting a workout in the meantime that's for sure.

My 2 cents is to definitely try it for a week. If for no other reason that to just test. After review you can decide what makes your life easier - my guess is that is may be a combination of both depending on what you are up to that day/week.

Good Luck!
