La Web en el móvil: Tecnologías y problemática

Abstract

In the last years we have seen many attempts to transfer the desktop browser experience to the mobile sphere, with poor results. Nonetheless, both devices' performance improvement and the development of new browsing support technologies are enabling the rise of a new form of mobile Web (also known as Mobile Web 2.0). We detail the characteristics of this mobile Web 2.0, the existing barriers that may impede its growth, as well as the distinctive characteristics of mobile browsing and the various technologies that favour the progress of the mobile Web 2.0, with a special focus in ajax, mashups, widgets and content syndication.
