To use the Mobile Web Proxy from your cell phone or other mobile device, point your device's web browser to the free online mobile proxy server at Stornge.mobi.
When I began using my cell phone's web browser, it displayed error pages for quite a lot of stuff on the web. Browsing the web from my cell phone was a lot like trying to read a book or a magazine with large chunks simply ripped out. And when I tried troubleshooting, I might have missed something, but it seemed like a big problem without an easily available solution.
So I tried to provide my own solution. I made a proxy server that would present webpages for the mobile web so that they would display in a way that would work for my cell phone's web browser. Technologies include paging, tag cleaning, and optional caching to improve performance, but without getting into technical details, this means that I can access some pages on the web that I couldn't access earlier.
If you would like to download the Mobile Web Proxy server, you are invited to do so. I suggest the most recent-numbered version marked "stable".
