Greenlight Wireless today announced the release of Skweezer 4.0, the latest version of its free mobile service that optimizes search results and webpages to fit a mobile screen and reduce/save bandwidth.
Here are some of the new features available in Skweezer 4.0:
1) New approach to mobile search: Multiple sets of search results from several top-tier search providers are collected. The final results that get sent to the user are selected on a case-by-case basis, determined by mobile device type, the user’s location, and other factors.
2) Find in page: Skweezer now includes an innovative “find in page” feature that allows a user to quickly jump to specific content within a Web page
3) Dynamic image optimization: Skweezer’s new image optimization technology dynamically recalibrates images for use on specific mobile devices by altering resolution, color-depth, and image dimensions.
4) Improved device-recognition technology for more accurate page-splitting of content for low-memory cell phones
5) Detects mobile-friendly Web sites so that they are not reformatted (image, GZIP, and other optimizationis still applied)
6) Passes the mobile user-agent to websites that redirect mobile users to handheld-friendly versions of their website content
7) Improved handling of frames, iframes, forms, scripts and other potentially troublesome elements
8) Mobile web based RSS reader
Visit skweezer.net from your mobile browser to test this latest version.
On a side note, Tech[dot]Blog is already mobile optimized. Just type thinkabdul.com in your mobile browser!

1Nice new features, but too commercial for me with all those ads. Happy to be using http://www.baresite.com now, which automatically recognizes feeds and has made browsing lots faster than with skweezer.
