PhoneGap: Peoples Choice Winner at Web 2.0 Expo Launch Pad

Posted Thursday, April 09, 2009

Today's winner according to the audience, PhoneGap is an open-source platform for developing mobile applications to run on a wide variety of handsets using only HMTL and Javascript. If you can write web pages, PhoneGap now makes you able to create mobile phone apps that will work on all kinds of phones; a neat trick given mobile phone apps use different languages. This program makes developing for all kinds of phones as simple as developing will be for the forthcoming Palm Pre. That's pretty hot.

Right now, PhoneGap works with the iPhone and Android, but the roadmap includes other platforms like Nokia, Palm, Blackberry, Windows, and other tools which include Dreamweaver, Eclipse, and Visual Studio.
