Web App Wednesday

WidgetboxYou have no doubt been to Apple’s Web App Repository right?  I bet you had to visit it on your desktop machine though.  By some strange oversight or cruel sense of irony, Apple’s Web App site is not functional on the iPhone itself.  It is odd; I know.

This week’s web app review isn’t so much a web app itself, but a web app collection site that rivals Apple’s, but you can actually visit it on your iPhone.  I cannot conceive why this hasn’t been done by Apple, but at least some one has.  The site I am talking about is Widgetbox.

Widgetbox is both an iPhone Web App Repository, but it also give simple instructions for integrating the web apps as web clips on your iPhone Home Screen. Widgetbox also has the information necessary for  you to create web app widgets for ANY website on the web.  The widget design standards are very easy to follow, and are pretty informational, but if you can’t follow them, there is a widget making tool.

To check out Widgetbox, point your iPhone Safari browser to iPhone.widgetbox.com.  The preset ones are there available for all to check out.  If you want to check out the design specs or the design wizard, visit here.
