iPhoneAtom Google News Feed Reader

From my work with the iUI javascript and css, I decided to integrate Google News feeds into an iPhone ONLY web site. You can still view it with the Safari 3.0 beta browser on you desktop, but you'll get a warning message and have to select the link explicitly on the page.


Some fun!!! Any feedback is appreciated. I plan on improving this over time but I think it's in decent working order now. I'd like to add the ability to add/delete your own feeds and have some better ad placement. Also, a neat logo would be nice.

It seems that the iPhone security flaw isn't as likely as the NY Times would lead you to believe. TUAW has posted a response the the Times article.

"Here's the real deal: if your iPhone connects to a malicious wireless network, and you surf to a web page (which the black hats replace with a poison page), you'd get the malware. Erica calls this the "Panera Bread" problem, where the bad guys set up an access point with the same name as a popular, trusted point. This exploit does not allow an attack from a remote machine on a shared WiFi network that is uncompromised; you'd have to connect to a WLAN specifically configured and owned to catch iPhones."
