WINDOWS CE POWER SITE OF THE MONTH
Leno, Letterman, and Mobile Channels
By Heather McDaniel

I'm a big fan of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and The Late Show with David Letterman. There are some nights when a TV Guide isn't around and I want to see who's appearing on what show.

I found a really cool solution to this problem -- Zach's Mobile Channels, Windows CE Power Magazine's Site of the Month.

Zach's Mobile Channels is a small Web site that contains a mobile channel and a mobile desktop component. The mobile channel, called NightTalk CheckList, is a comparison of guests booked on Leno and Letterman each night of the coming week. This is updated every Sunday.

The mobile desktop component is Y2K CountDown. This is a fun piece of software that tells you how much time is left before the Year 2000. In case you aren't sure how to install a mobile desktop component, there's a link that gives you the information you need. And of course, this is Y2K compliant.

While these mobile channels are great to have, the real value in the Web site is the Mobile Development Resource Guide. This isn't a mobile channel, but it gives you resources on developing your own mobile channel. If you look at Figure A, you'll see that there are several sample channels and links on developing mobile channels.
