Yester­day I installed the WPTouch plu­gin on this blog. Basic­ally it’s a Word­press theme that reformats your blog so it’s much more read­able on mobile devices (Android, iPhone, iPod Touch). Full list of fea­tures here.

More than just a plu­gin, WPtouch is an entire theme pack­age for your Word­Press web­site. Modeled after Apple’s app store design specs, WPtouch makes your Word­Press web­site load light­ning fast on touch mobile devices, show your con­tent beau­ti­fully, all while not inter­fer­ing with your reg­u­lar theme.

Bonus: WPTouch also includes hooks for web­site traffic ana­lytic pack­ages, as well as Adsense mobile accounts, so you won’t miss out mon­et­iz­ing your mobile web­site traffic.
