Learn about usage, dosage, side effects, and much, much more by simply entering either the brand or generic name into the search edit field.

Please note that the standard computer resolution version of Web M.D. (www.webmd.com) employs a great deal of graphics, advertisements, and at the time of this writing, is not mobile browser accessible for either sighted or non-sighted searchers. 

Enjoy,

Hello Everyone,

Do you wish your favorite websites had a mobile friendly version that you could use on your mobile phone? 

Even though mobile devices are outnumbering computers and are able to browse the web, many websites do not have a mobile friendly version available. 

Viewing a standard resolution, graphics-heavy site on your mobile phone is often not a satisfying experience as it will most likely take a very long time to download, display, and navigate.

Luckily, there is a free online utility that can convert a standard website into a mobile friendly version without the website owner having to do anything to the site.

Thus, until your favorites sites have been updated so as to automatically detect a mobile phone connection that will signal the site to beam over a mobile optimized version, you may use a rather nifty service from Google to convert the site for you.

Hello Everyone,

I hope you find the following seven tasks you can perform with your mobile phone both useful and enjoyable.

1.
BUILD A BLOG:

Did you know that you can both create and update your BLOG from your cell phone?  That’s right!  You can actually create a new BLOG from your phone just by sending a text message to go@blogger.com.  In short order, you will receive a reply listing your new BLOG’s ‘ URL and a “claim code” to enter at http://go.blogger.com.  From this website, you have the option of routing mobile posts to the new BLOG you just created or an existing one.  While on the site, simply choose a template (if necessary) and you are done.  You will see your initial text message and any additional posts sent to that same email address will instantly appear on your new BLOG.  This is a simple way to get your first BLOG up and running, immediately.  Read the rest of this entry »
