Logout wrote a phlog phost[1] about his user agent database[2] that | |
he put together to collect and count the various user-agent strings | |
from web browsers. | |
He wrote about how bloated the wide world of web has become and how | |
some of the old hardware is made obsolete. This is one of the things | |
I dislike about today's WWW. It is unnecessarily wasteful. | |
This got me thinking about my old devices and so I decided to | |
participate. It also gave me an excuse to revisit my collection. | |
I added a list of user-agent strings that I added to the counts at | |
the end of this entry. Many of these are from fairly recent devices. | |
I am still working on the older devices that have browsers, but | |
can't seem to get them net access just yet. | |
This reminded me of connecting my Palm IIIc to the Internet using a | |
data cable connected to my Samsung SCH-8500 flip phone and use it | |
like a modem over the Sprint PCS network to my ISP. I used the | |
Blazer browser for the web and there was web clipping applications | |
for abbreviated web content. There was also an AOL Instant Messenger | |
client and I could connect to my server via ssh1. I wonder what ever | |
happened to WAP? | |
If you have an old device and want to be added to the database, check | |
out Logout's (My Little) User-Agent Database site.[2] Your device might | |
add a new entry! | |
