Apple posts "MobileMe Setup" instructions page

Apple has posted a page with instructions for setting up (or transitioning) to their MobileMe service that officially launches today. Configurations outlined include:

  • iPhone/iPod touch + Mac - Requires iPhone 2.0 Software Update (available July 11).
  • iPhone/iPod touch + PC - Requires iPhone 2.0 Software Update (available July 11).
  • Mac setup - Set up just your Mac.
  • PC setup - Set up just your PC.

It's still early in the switch over, so not all aspects of me.com appear to be available yet. The other note on this page states "To access your email from the web, go to www.me.com."

Finally! - Email Standards Project


Email Standards Project: "The Email Standards Project works with email client developers and the design community to improve web standards support and accessibility in email."

I'm very happy to see an organized attempt to address the issue of poor and inconsistent industry-wide support for rich email (html email). The Email Standards Project looks like the bandwagon to jump on. The site has a great chart right on the homepage showing popular email clients (desktop and web-based) and their rating in terms of standards support. The project has come up with an "acid test", much like the Web Standards Project, that is used to fairly and consistently test the ability of a given email client.

Check out the site, join the email list or spread the word.
