Whether you’re waiting in a dentist’s office or standing in line for Hannah Montana tickets, you need to stay in touch with the world around you. I suppose you could ask another human being what’s the latest news, but come on, this is the 21st century. This is where your iPhone comes in.
Here are the best news sites that have been optimized for your iPhone:
AP News – Legendary news service gets optimized for the iPhone. Get the latest news, or customize for local news and other categories such as Sports, Business, and Entertainment.
CBS News – All the news that’s fit to print…err…view on your 480X320 dpi screen with high-grade optical glass.
Chicago Sun Times - All of Chicago’s news on your iPhone.
Chicago Tribune – Chicago’s greatest newspaper in an iPhone-optimized format. Very well done. Read about the Cubs losing the pennant, again.
CNN.com – World’s most popular online news site now in mobile form.
Fox News – Fair. Balanced. Use the iPhone’s accelerometer to balance the news.
Google News – Google’s news site joins their suite of iPhone-optimized services. Only downside is Google News only presents a blurb from the source. Tapping on the stories more often than not lead to a site that is not iPhone optimized.
Los Angeles Times – The newspaper for the biggest city in California is now on the iPhone. I’m so stoked, dude.
New York Times Mobile – America’s greatest metropolitan newspaper in a friendly format for mobile phones.
NYTimesRiver.com – A twist on the New York Times site. News stories are presented based on the time they were published to NYTimes.com.
Reuters Mobile – Reuter’ news service available in a very simple mobile format.
