\"SlideShare<\/a> \"SlideShare<\/a><\/p>\n

This week the popular presentation sharing site\u00a0SlideShare launched a mobile Webapp<\/a>. \u00a0Which is something I’m really excited about. \u00a0If you’re ever clicked a link in Twitter or an email using \u00a0your mobile browser or iPad and found yourself on Slideshare’s old non-mobile friendly Flash based site I think you will welcome the change too.<\/p>\n

According to SlidesShare the new mobile site supports the iPhone, iPad and Android devices. The images above show it running on an HTC Magic phone running Android 2.2. Even on that old and underpowered device, SlideShare worked well and switching between slides was almost\u00a0instantaneous.<\/p>\n

With most new HTML5 based mobile efforts, Android and iOS are the only platforms\u00a0supported. So I was pleasantly surprised to find that SlideShare Mobile also worked well with the Samsung bada, WebOS and Opera Mobile 11.1 (image below, left) browsers and even with Opera Mini 6.1 (image below, right. That’s no mean feat as proxy based browsers like Opera Mini support a rather limited subset of JavaScript and HTML5.<\/p>\n

There is one downside to using an unsupported browser. \u00a0If you go to\u00a0Slideshare.net<\/a> \u00a0with anything but an Android or iOS browser you will get the desktop version of the site. If that happens you can use the URL slideshare.net\/mobile\/<\/a>\u00a0to see the mobile version. Also, most older presentations on SlideShare aren’t available in mobile format yet but all new ones should be.<\/p>\n
