I’ve been using Mesh on my PC’s for a while now, it’s hard to say just how useful it it having my documents and files available where ever I am. It’s one of those things that you don’t realise you need until you have it!
With the release of the Mac and Windows Mobile CTP’s this week, I’ve been thinking a bit more about how to use Mesh more. One obvious gap is my iPhone. It’s a device that I carry with me more or less everywhere, but the one device I can’t use with Mesh.
It wasn’t until I watched the Mesh on Mac video over on on10 over lunch that I thought about using the mesh mobile interface that’s available on m.mesh.com. Having tried it out I have to say that it works really well.
From the mobile site you can access all of the folders and content that you have synced with your Mesh Desktop. You can also read all of the associated news and updates and manage the membership of those folders.
The iPhone will open and render many of the typical doc types (Images, Word, Excel, Powerpoint, PDF etc), but won’t unfortunately let you open and listen to MP3 files that you may have there. It was worth a try I guess!
