The Mysteries of a Woman's Handbag

Something that has been a curiosity for males for ages, what's in a women's handbag. To be honest not a lot these days with information being able to be accessed through mobile devices such as the iPhone.

Mobile Website or Mobile Application?

Over the next coming weeks the Feedians will be focussing on mobile websites and applications. To provide you with a little clarity, I thought I would share the differences between mobile websites and also applications - apart from the obvious variation in their names.
