- Abstract
- Mobile Web Server is the light tool to automatically create publicly (and locally) available internet site within several minutes from regular files stored in a folder (or a folder hierarchy) directly located on your portable USB device or on PocketPC, SmartPhone, Communicator.
- Mobile Web Server automatically generates the site, the navigation menu and provides you with permanent/symbolic the server can be accessed via. The server does not require any special configuration. The only operation you should perform is to create a folder and put the files, which you would like the site will be created from, in the folder. So, the entire site creation is reduced to simple file copy operations.
- For instance, to create a personal site with three pages (AboutMe, FavoriteLinks and ContactMe) you should create three regular text files (no need to learn a special language), point the server to the directory, where the files are located. Your site is ready.
- Special Free Access Service provides Mobile Web Server with worldwide access from any Internet connected computer or PDA. The only requirement is your Mobile web Server running computer or PDA has to be Internet connected. Any type of Internet connection is allowed. For instance, you installed Mobile Web Server on your Internet connected SmartPhone or Communicator, free worldwide name for the Server has been chosen, you took some pictures with built-in camera; All your pictures will be instantly available via the Web on any other Internet connected computer or PDA all over the world directly from your Pocket Device without any uploads.
- Making e-presentations can be extremely convenient with Mobile Web Server. If you have Mobile Web Server installed on mobile (PocketPC, Communicator or SmartPhone) device with several text files, spreadsheet and picture files, you can set "ad-hoc" Wi-Fi connection and start your presentation just entering a hall. The hall visitors will be able to see your presentation on their mobile devices immediately, even without a more "wide" network connection.
- If your Mobile Web Server in installed on a portable device, just connect the device to any computer of local network and all the network "clients" will see your information immediately, in full.
