We recently received multiple emails from people speaking highly of an all-in-one informational mobile website for people on the go. Dubbed Fastpages, the service claims to be a source of all types of information for the busy traveler.
In fact, here’s what Chris Chilvers had to say about it:
Catch a plane, check an airfare, find a hotel, monitor the traffic, handle an emergency, view an Amber Alert or locate a recipe. Then, watch your animated weather, scan a map, read any newspaper in the world, research anything and find virtually everything. All very fast, free and easy. Just enter www.thefastpages.com into your mobile browser and off you go.
While all this sounds useful, the problem is that of the three times I tried accessing the site, it returned an http 404 error (page not found) twice!
Incredibly frustrating. Obviously, this mobile website has a long way to go before I can recommend it to anyone.
