Woohoo for having our Twi-Mobile button on the Affiliate links on TA. Hey, they are a gigantic site so I'm happy to have our button somewhere. They have the most awesome contests so go check now. By the way, they don't have an iPhone icon up yet but should soon.

Strictly Rob Pattinson

Come check out this very pretty Wordpress blog. I'm a fan of her colours and she truly has a tab for every Rob related thing at the top. So organized!

Twilight Poison

Last one for today. This one deserves a special mention as it is the prettiest Twilight mobile site I've seen to date. See from my iPhone?

They made custom code for their site and it shows. Anyone wanting to pretty up their current blogs that I am helping to admin, feel free to make yourselves fancier borders and specify more colours if you want. If you really want to replicate the look of this you'll have to go the mobify.me route.

As always I'm adding these to the desktop sidebar and also the mobile jumpsite http://twimobile.prohost.mobi/

TwiCrackAddict Joins Twi-Mobile & YouTube Videos on your Posts

2010-07-13T16:00:00.000-07:00

Super big news...

Confessions of a TwiCrack Addict

Thank you to Lorabell from TwiCrackAddict for agreeing to get mobilized and slapping a Twi-Mobile badge right at the top of her sidebar. I'm sure her site needs no introduction but I'm super happy because one of my good friends is addicted to TwiCrack and I am the worst type of enabler.

Of course adding her to the blogroll alongside all the other mobile blogs at http://twimobile.prohost.mobi/

Admin note: YouTube videos - they can't be seen if you embed them in your posts; you won't even get an error box or a placeholder. So I've just started putting a link right before or after the video saying Video Here and have it linked to the YouTube URL like the one you would send to a friend through email.
It used to work but then YouTube changed up their stuff and it's not right at the moment.

Mobile Friendly Twilighted.net Fanfiction

2010-07-10T22:34:00.000-07:00

So remember how excited I was when fanfiction.net went mobile friendly?

Well there's a way to read Twilighted.net fanfic off line easily now. My fanfic buddy FanficZombie tweeted me the other day with a little tidbit. Check out her blog for more info.

reading this offline has been the Holy Grail!

Her big news - remember the fanfic downloader app I talked about before that you can use to download stories from fanfiction.net to read offline later? Well it works on Twilighted.net as well.

Link to Fanfiction Downloader that works with Twilighted.net and Fanfiction.net

Remember that you can easily download stories onto your iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad Stanza app to read offline later on. Check this article to see how.

So a huge thank you to FanficZombie for finding the Holy Grail. Seriously silly that I've been using that app for ages and never even thought to try Twilighted.net on it before. Maybe a good thing because I feel myself becoming more fanfic zombified after this.

Twi-Mobile Welcomes Osa Bella & Ask Alice

2010-07-10T21:48:00.000-07:00

New Members:

Osa Bella

I love my fanfic and Osa Bella is written by the talented Myg. Here's the story

Bella is a school counselor, but Edward is posing as a student. Will Edward convince Bella to defy her head and follow her heart? Or will Bella conquer her desire and do what she believes is right?

It is one of those where I plowed through the whole thing at once and barely breathed. Chapters post at Twitarded and also on fanfiction.net.

Next...

The other new addition to our mobile friendly list is Ask Alice. It is a super new blog by Alisha who also owns Black Nailed Reviews. This girls got things started right by making sure she goes mobile too. Check her out here!

Mobile Sites ReVamped

2010-06-29T13:42:00.000-07:00

Phew! I have almost finished converting the free mofuse blogs over to Mofuse Premium blogs.
Updated mobile links on sidebar.
New Twi-Mobile site at http://twimobile.prohost.mobi/ also updated.
About half the sites have also added a new feature where mobile devices are automatically redirected to the mobile site. Fancy huh?
IPad users please let me know if you are being redirected and if it's driving you crazy as the mobile blogs aren't iPad optimized.

Lastly, the sidebar lower half of members are those whose mobile sites aren't in proper order right now. I would never take you off since you have allowed me to badger you enough to be here. It's just a reminder to get stuff fixed and indeed email me for assistance at twicupcake(at)gmail.com

For those wanting to join Twi-Mobile and don't have a mobile site yet they'll have these options.
- free - if you want to switch to another platform entirely convert to wordpress.com or wordpress.org self-hosted
- free - if you want to leave your desktop blog alone - Mobify.me - meant for web designers so basic knowledge of CSS important but don't you have a programmer friend :) Just kidding...email me for help twicupcake(at)gmail.com
- paid - for 3 bucks/month at mofusepremium.com with promo code three - feel free to fiddle with making your own site or email me to do it for you - it takes me about 10 minutes a site - helpful if I have a current blog banner and button for you

Free Mofuse for Blogs Have Changed

2010-06-23T12:16:00.000-07:00

Sigh, I leave the blogging world for two weeks and look what happens? Free Mofuse for Blogs is no longer available. Instead they are offering a very low price (only 3 bucks a month) for their MofusePremium Jumpstart plan. You just enter promo code three.

Considering that the MofusePremium is more flexible, extremely easy to use, offers autodetection of mobile devices, and has lots of other features we should be happy they're offering it for only 3 bucks a month. There are still limitations to this beginner plan, mainly that there is a low maximum number of elements (links, pages, etc) per blog.

This last part is what doesn't work for me. If you've used my latest Twi-Mobile site at http://twi-mobile.prohost.mobi/ you would have noticed that all the network member links don't fit on one page and I've had to list people over a few pages. Just not as elegant.

What's my free alternative? The free alternative to this is to use mobify. It is indeed free and makes beautiful sites. I can put unlimited links on it and really customize everything and not just show an RSS feed. Downside? You need to know basic CSS in order to pretty it up. Not an issue for those of you web designers out there but for the rest of us there's a bit of a learning curve. You can hire a web designer of course to help with this but once again incurring more costs.

For more info from a designer on the basics of mobifying your site check out AmyStoddard.com
For a good starter YouTube video of how to start mobifying

So for now I've changed over my mobile blog to ~~http://twimobile.mobify.me~~
http://twimobile.prohost.mobi/

It's basic but it lists all the mobile friendly blogs for now. Speaking of which all of you who have free mofuse blogs started by me or who have joined up to this point should be expecting an email soon from me.

Important Twi-Mobile Admin Note and Fanfiction.net Goes Mobile

2010-05-31T10:24:00.000-07:00

Important Twi-Mobile admin note

Reminder that if your mofuse blog goes down please redirect to http://twimobile.prohost.mobi/

That is my paid Mofuse blog and it will have the RSS feed for all Twi-Mobile members and will still work even if your mofuse blogs go under unexpected server maintenance.
********************
My apologies to everyone who follows both my blogs as this is a partial cross post. This news was just too important to not put both places.
By the way I changed my avatar here and on Twitter to my Bella and Edward figurines - I was a bit tired of looking at my own face. Click here for my post about them.

my new Avatar

Those of you who read fanfic and have been following my blog know that I've made it my mission in life to do everything from my iPhone. I've even gone to great lengths to try and get fanfiction.net stories onto my iPhone and iPod touch and written tutorials for you guys as well.

Sunday was the release of the final chapter of Master of the Universe by Snowdragon Icequeens. It's Chapter 87 and this fic has finally finished after 8 months of wonderful reading bliss.

I was so happy when my email alert from fanfiction.net came with this at the end

See the Mobile? Too exciting. It's about frickin time.

If you click on the mobile version this is how the story looks from my iPhone.

To jump chapters you can scroll to the bottom or press Menu at the top.

This even lets you Review, Add Story or Author as Favourite, and Follow Story or Author.

What happens if you go to a regular desktop fanfiction.net URL? Nothing, as in there is no automatic detection and redirection for mobile devices.

But it's easy to get to the mobile version of any fanfiction.net story.

Just replace the www with an m

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5368782/87/
becomes
http://m.fanfiction.net/s/5368782/87/

Side tutorial - How do you do select and replace text on an iPhone?

First hold your finger down on the www part of the URL until you get the magnifying glass.

Then tap on Select, not Select All.

You should get a Cut/Copy/Paste box showing a highlighted www part. Don't click on any of those options.

Now just type m to replace the www and you'll get the correct URL. Then press Go at the bottom right and you're there.

So if you don't mind reading fanfiction.net online this is the quickest way. If you have to read it offline then still follow the tutorial here.

By the way here are some iPhone wallpapers I made for myself this week.

You can find them and my other wallpapers at the iPhone Wallpaper Archive.

Lastly, notice my new buttons on the right sidebar for Twitter, RSS, email? Well there's a new button you may not recognize

It's for tumblr - my new microblog - I'll explain it next time. For now just go ahead and click on it to check it out. Don't forget to click the Archive button when you're there - the Archive gallery is so pretty!

TwiPorn Library/Random Acts of Rob Join Twi-Mobile

2010-05-25T22:21:00.000-07:00

Random Acts of Rob

I am super duper excited that Random Acts of Rob (RAOR) has decided to join Twi-Mobile. I've been following them since the first week I became a twilight fan a year ago and was introduced to fanfiction. They have the TwiPorn Library and it's seriously full of lemony goodness that you could get lost in forever. They are a mobile friendly Wordpress site but keep in mind stories they link to may not necessarily be mobile friendly on Fanfiction.net or Twilighted.net but the summaries on RAOR are mobile so you can see what you get before you move on and click. Remember if you want to convert Fanfiction.net stories to be easily read as an ebook on your mobile see my sidebar post How to Read Fanfic On Your Mobile.

Desktop & Mobile:
RAOR Homepage http://robert-pattinson.ca/
RAOR TwiPorn Library http://robert-pattinson.ca/twi-porn-hall-of-fame/

Don't forget that you can add their specific bookmark to your phone but even if you don't they'll be a link to them from the Twi-Mobile mobile site at http://twimobile.mofuse.mobi/
