Following the response and feedback I got on the “Understanding Mobile 2.0” article I wrote at Read/WriteWeb a couple of weeks ago, I created a wiki space to start categorizing the so-called Mobile 2.0 companies.

You can acces the directory at mobile2companies.com.

I decided to use a wiki tool, called Wepaint, so companies can add their own information and keep it updated. You just need to sign-up to add your Mobile 2.0 company info page, you can add images, slideshows, video’s, and RSS feeds as well, and tag your page(s).

Companies can use the tool to keep the web community updated with latest news, elevator pitches, presentations of new products/services, etc. You can browse the wiki by category, by keywords, subscribe to the wiki feeds on new pages added or updated, comments and news, a lot of other stuff out there yet to discover.

The directory is far from complete, I just gave it an initial injection and added some companies I know to start with, so the best thing to do is add your page if you don’t find your company in there and update your page if you don’t like what I added, it’s a wiki, you know

Kudos to Carlo for helping me with the introduction texts.

Contact me if you would like to contribute to this project, to become a writer/moderator, to help develop the wiki, and for any suggestion and comments. I hope these pages will be usefull for the entire mobile value chain, spread the word!

What doesn’t even look easy on the iPhone, as Martin mentioned earlier today, Winksite and Shotcode will try to make easier on (m)any phone(s). Dave and Dennis both anounced today they team up to make our lives easier to get with one hand to the mobile web.

This is really a smart move from both companies to make the mobile web easier to access. It’s so obvious, one doesn’t think about it, until Oliver apparently comes in

Both are still relatively young start-ups but have build quite some experience each on their own side in a very short time: Winksite building communities and Shotcode making mobile marketing campaigns easier.

Shotcode needs to get pre-installed on the phones to make it even more easy, but this is a great step forward. Good luck with the venture, guys!
