Naturally, we Gadgetizers are in love with tiny web servers, so it’s no surprise that when we read about the development of an Apache web server for the S60/Symbian platform, our glasses steamed up and our ears turned purple.

From the mobile web server research project over at Nokia:

For quite some time it has been possible to access the Internet using mobile phones, although the role of the phone has strictly been that of a client. Considering that the modern phones have processing power and memory on par with and even exceeding that of webservers when the web was young, there really is no reason anymore why webservers could not reside on mobile phones and why people could not create and maintain their own personal mobile websites.

I like this way of thinking. “There’s no reason why this can’t work…” has spawned more innovation in technology in the past 100 years than any other statement. It’s the Gadgetizer mantra from this day forward!
