Alesandro has put together a blog reader that will let you read his blog posts on a mobile device. It seems like a neat application, but obvious limitation is you can only read from one web site. Nevertheless, I am sure it can be expanded to read from other sites also. Check it out here.

 Skillpod media, a mobile games company based in South Africa is planning on launching a game suite based on Flash Lite. From the release:

“Until now, SkillPod has focused on online casual games, with its GameZBoost platform used by several web portals in South Africa to deliver its games offerings.

Although Flash Lite suits casual games as a technology, the challenge for SkillPod will be educating consumers that they have Flash Lite capable handsets, and how to get the games.”

There’s a new tool available from Instinct Company based in NewZealand. It allows you to create Flash based games using their graphical interface. They have also posted a video that shows how easily this can be done. They’ve also given bunch of examples of games created using the tool  on their web site. They have a channel on youtube where they show all these videos.

Does this mean that everyone with an idea can now create a game? Looks like we are ready for Games 2.0!

Calculator is a

 A simple calculator created using Flash Lite for Nokia S60 that offers all the basic calculations and some memory calculations is available for free download here

I came across Flash Lite version of ‘Tic-Tac-Toe’ - one of the basic games- on internet. This one allows you to have multiple modes (such as Human vs. Computer and Human vs. Human), and has different levels of skills. You can download it for free here.

I came accross this site that has several wallpapers and games listed on this page. CHeck it out.

Kuneri Lite is a product that facilitates Flash to access device features such as bluetooth. It is a great utility for SYmbian based phones and you can develop pretty powerful applications. The developers at Kuneri recently posted a tutorial on Nokia forums on creating chat application using Blutetooth.

From the tutorial: “In this tutorial we will follow a step-by-step guide to create a chat by Bluetooth using Kuneri Lite. Kuneri Lite allows access to the S60 features (Bluetooth, GPS, Camera, …) that we haven’t access directly from Flash Lite.”

You can find the tutorial here.

Yes- the ever popular Flash Lite Tetris is available here. Too bad my blackberry does not have Flash Lite. When will we see Flash Lite on every phone out there?

Nokia has announced a contenst for ‘mind blowing games’.  They are inviting developers to create innovative games for Ngage and Series 40 and 60 devices. Although the announcement does not say what the technology should be used, there is mention of Java and SYmbin. From the site:

Sponsored by Nokia Publishing, the Mobile Games Innovation Challenge invites developers to submit mobile gaming concepts to help drive mobile gaming worldwide to the next level of excitement and innovation, relying on the advanced features and functionalities of any Nokia N-Gage, Java or Symbian-based Series 40 or S60 device.

The three most innovative game concepts will be offered Nokia Publishing pre-production contracts, targeting publication of their winning concept on the corresponding Nokia device platform. In addition, the first winner will be awarded 40,000 Euros, the second 20,000 Euros and the third 10,000 Euros to enable the participant to further develop the concept.”
