Detailed test analysis



Mippin is a site which also creates a mobilized version of your blog using rss feeds.Mippin lets you keep the whole revenue generated by Admob(An adsense like service for mobile site).It does not lets you make a mobile site but only lets you mobilize your blog.It has a different interface but I found the interface of Mofuse more appealing.it offers less customization as compared to Mofuse.customization is only limited to colors and logos.You cannot add a new page or a new page or a feed.Adsense mobile is not supprted.When I vewied i in mobile the ext looked a liitle bigger.It also does not displays the whole pst.When you click on continue reading it takes you to a page which asks wther you want to view the full page or a google reader version.This is quite irritating.
