Best Mobile Websites

If you're like me, you need info on the go. A lot of mainstream websites now have mobile versions so people can access info on their phones without loading the full HTML pages. After getting my new HTC Hero running Android, I've been on the web a lot. Here are my favorite sites.

1. Google (m.google.com): This is an obvious one. Searching couldnt be easier, and the best part is that there are no graphics and stuff that takes long to load.
2. ESPN Mobile Web (m.espn.go.com): For all your sports needs, look no further than ESPN. The mobile web functions like an iPhone app with a scores section, headlines, and favorite teams. It's easy to use and looks good doing it.
   
3. Wikipedia (m.wikipedia.com): For any quick bits of info, Wiki mobile is your first stop. A simple home page with Article of the Day and a search bar makes this easy to use.
4. CNET mobile (m.cnet.com): For tech reviews, videos, and guides, I always use CNET. The mobile site is no different. Interface is great, and out of all mobile sites CNET had the best video and podcast streaming quality.
5. NYTimes (m.nytimes.com): Apart from Google, this mobile site was the fastest one I tested. It loads in a snap, making news easy to access. On top of this, all its articles in its main sections load at once so you can scroll and pick an article from sports, world, or business without navigating menus. It's like a live newspaper in your pocket, but better.
6. Weather Channel (m.weather.com): Anytime you need to check the weather in any location around the globe, your one stop is Weather Channel. The mobile website is no-nonsense, with a simple location search and then weather results. Everything you need from flu reports to pollen counts is there, but you'll have to dig through a plethora of menus and tabs, which can be an annoyance. Otherwise, this site is well done.
   
7. Moviefone (moviefone.com): This mobile site is awesome for getting movie info, showtimes, and theater locations on the go. I personally prefer hardware apps like Fandango and Flixster, but for phones without apps, Moviefone works. It has a clean interface that loads quickly and lists movies with ratings, which is simple and perfect.
   
8. CNN (m.cnn.com): CNN mobile has a great interface for accessing headlines. It also maximizes load times bby only putting preview pics on the first headline. The news can be tough to keep up with, but with CNN mobile, its no problem.
9. Raaga (m.raaga.com): A sleeper pick for best mobile sites. Raaga makes streaming Indian music really simple. The site, just like ESPN, works as an app, with good menus and lists. The music streaming can be faulty, but otherwise, this rocks!
   
10. Yahoo! mobile (m.yahoo.com): Yahoo is ofcourse a staple in everyday life. However, the downside with the mobile site is that it was one of the slowest here. It has tons of images and a somewhat unecessary graphic interface. It also reloads often, and the Ymail mobile site sucks. On the flipside, it has a good mix of news articles and a handy favorites section.
