Did Google effectively just take their own stab at WML and WAP? I remember using a flip phone around 2002 with that awesome technology to view sports scores.

- ashmud 11y agoIt seems like it. This was also brought up the arstechnica comments. Google still has their WAP transformation tool ("Google Wireless Transcoder"): http://www.google.com/gwt/n http://www.google.com/gwt/n edit: It looks like Google more recently rolled out another tool (googleweblight.com) for shrinking web pages. This does not generate WAP, however. https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6211428?hl= https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6211428?hl=
