Top iPhone Web Sites

Before my recent trip, I decided it was time for a redo for the all website links for my iPhone. On the Edge network, loading a normal web page is freaking painful. I swear it always takes 30 seconds just for the flash ads to fail.


So i decided to Google for a list of iPhone friendly sites. I found lots of iPhone focused mobile sites, lol, but not many links to normal news and sports sites. Anyhow, I found a few sites here and there. A lot of sites have a special iphone.domain.com or m.domain.com version of their site. I found a number of these that way. So without further ado, the list!


General News


CNN - http://m.cnn.com/

Fox News - http://iphone.foxnews.com/

Google News - http://www.google.com/m/news?source=mobileproducts&dc=gorganic

My Way - http://news.myway.com/index.html
New York Times - http://mobile.nytimes.com/

Yahoo - http://us.m.yahoo.com/


Sports


BBC Football - http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/low/football/default.stm

ESPN - http://mobileapp.espn.go.com/wireless/espn/redesign/index

Sports Tap - http://sportstap.mobi/


Tech News


CNET - http://m.news.com/2162-12_3-0.html

Engadget - http://mobile.engadget.com/

Lifehacker - http://mobile.lifehacker.com/

SiliconValley.com - http://m.siliconvalley.com/

Slashdot - http://slashdot.org/


And one final mention that is a must have. I have found the RSS reader built into the iPhone .... lacking. But the folks at Google hit a home run with their mobile reader. So for reading RSS feeds use:


Google Reader - http://www.google.com/reader/m/view/?source=mobileproducts&dc=gorganic


It is a great example of a well written web app for the iPhone.


I plan to keep looking for good sites and will repost this list periodically.
