I was down at a popular cell phone provider's store today and I had an idea. What if I go around and load up my blog in the favorites on the web browsers of all these smartphones on display while under the guise of a curious customer. I did just that and now that particular store has about 10 cell phones with this very page in their favorites. I didn't really know how to set the home page and I didn't want to take the time to figure it out for each phone so I didn't get that far. I also have no idea how often those display phones are serviced/reloaded/looked at by staff so all that work may be gone tomorrow. I also realize that your average Joe isn't going to be looking in the Favorites of a display phone.
I propose that more people do this. Lets see if we can get this viral. If nothing else, just pull up your website on the phone and leave it sitting, which I did with several of the phones I hit. Don't do anything harmful though. This is purely in the spirit of fun and mischief.
