Mobispine - feed reader/blogging tool that can’t spell ‘enjoy’

mobispineMobispine is a ‘mobile media browser’ (read: RSS reader with a few extra functions) for your mobile that claims to help you ‘njoy life on the go’.

Whether this is the same thing as ‘enjoying’ life on the go isn’t immediately clear, but I’m sure they know what they mean. Perhaps the usual spelling of ‘enjoy’ is copyrighted, or something.

Anyway, Mobispine is actually rather good - once you have installed the (Java) client, it will scoot off and fetch cut-down versions of whatever feeds you like. It comes with a load of predefined ones (news, sport, etc) and adding your own is simple enough either on the handset or via the Mobispine website.

The software will download simplified text-only versions of most feeds, which should make it a lot faster (and cheaper) to catch up with your favourite sites.

There are also plug-ins available to integrate with Facebook and Twitter.

Should you wish to inflict you views on the world you can sign up for a Mobispine blog - this lets you upload content (photos, movies, etc) to a personalised page. There is a fair bit of content up there already, albeit mainly in Danish thanks to a recent deal with the Danish arm of mobile carrier 3.
