At the same time Google also strips out stuff that your handset wouldn't be able to display, so you get a better mobile readable site.

So of course had to read your posting on the topic and it was as usual, excellent. The findings and user preferences around personal content of adult nature also match three recent SMS-dating/romance related studies that could be of interest to your readers: In Italy Tegic ran a survey of SMS use in romance in November 2005 and reported that 41% of Italian adults in romantic relationships had snooped inside their partners' phones. Not that Italians are particularly nosey. Halebop and Telia ran a survey of Swedish use of SMS in romance in Feb 2006, and found that in Sweden the reported rate is 67% of Swedes who have snooped inside their partners' phones. Are Swedes more untrusting of their partners or more honest about their behaviour (or perhaps is Swedish equality ranging more into it being more acceptable to snoop inside your partner's phones) Well, not to be left undone, there was a February 2006 UK survey reported in the Independent. It did not give the number of times Brits have snooped inside their partners' phones, but it did reveal, that of those who were caught being unfaithful in the UK, 65% were caught by their partner snooping in their mobile phone.. These strongly support the reasons why the American survey found two thirds refusing to let anyone look inside their phones. More about romance, youth and SMS in my fourth book, Communities Dominate Brands, and our blogsite of the same name at www.communities-dominate.blogs.com Keep up the excellent work here at MobHappy.
