New Online Service Provides Free Hosted Mobile Websites

CYBERSPACE — A new online service promises to make it easy to establish a presence on mobile devices.

The website is called Jag.ag, and it works like this: When the site opens, users are immediately greeted with a simple editing interface. Through this interface, users can select content from a default library of text and images.

In addition, users can use a drag-and-drop interface to add content from popular websites like Facebook, MySpace, Flickr, Google or virtually any site online. Users can simply type in a web address to pull up a mobile-friendly version of most websites. From that mobile-friendly version, users can drag and drop content onto their mobile site.

All of these services are available instantly and without registration. To actually make the site available to mobile devices, users must sign up and get a subdomain under Jag.ag, which hosts the sites for free.

Jag.ag's terms of service include no prohibitions against adult content, instead warning users against posting content that is "defamatory, indecent, offensive, tortuous, or otherwise unlawful." Interested webmasters should read all of the terms of service.

Despite a raw interface, tech analyst Ouriel Ohayon praised the new service.

"The company is betting, rightly so, that many will need a mobile presence – ad hoc casual or professional – and that Jag.ag will be a good solution for them," he wrote for TechCrunch.com. "Jag.ag can also be seen as a better alternative to [text-messaging]. The business model can be easily guessed since we are talking about a web to mobile service: premium services and SMS credits for different actions and features will be part of the recipe."

Jag.ag also lets users send electronic greeting cards and invitations to mobile devices.
