Partial Fix to your iGoogle for iPhone problems

| 3 Comments

Evidently, I’m not the only person totally pissed off about Google’s move to get rid of the iPhone version of iGoogle. From the looks of things, Google has no intention of turning back the clock on this one. I guess there still hasn’t been enough public outcry. I have, however, found a partial fix to your iGoogle for iPhone problem.

In mobileSafari, go to the following address:
www.google.com/ig/i?source=mofe

That should allow you to load the proper iPhone optimized version of iGoogle. The only problem is that all my descriptions come up with “Information is temporarily unavailable.” I’m not sure if it’s going to stay that way, or if you’ll have different results, but at least this is better than using the standard mobile version of iGoogle.

Hope that helps someone out there.
