Hi everyone. Probably you've heard about the buzz going around mobile web nowadays. Looking through i found a interesting technique, it's about setting a cookie to user, which represents it's screen size(and maybe resolution), and then based on that to send him images with size appropriate to his screen. I like the way how it can improve loading times on mobile devices. Sadly is implemented in PHP and relies on .htaccess files.

Question: Did anybody implemented something like this? Or at least has some idea on how to do it. I was thinking on figuring it out myself but i don't want to reinvent the wheel.

Thank you in advance.

The image serving in GAE will resize and serve based on the URL. So yes can do what you are describing. I don’t know of an implementation that has been done.
