Aardvark is going mobile…

Many people have told us that Aardvark would be extremely useful when mobile.  It’s one of the most-requested features among Aardvark users.  

In fact, some Aardvark users are already asking questions from their iPhones and Blackberries via mobile email… (just send any question to aardvark@vark.com, and Aardvark will respond via email with an answer in a few minutes.)  

We’re in the process of tweaking the email-asking experience so that it works well on the mobile channel.  

If you’re already up and running with Aardvark via mobile email, please let us know — how is the experience?  What works, and what doesn’t?  Any feedback will be extremely helpful as we work on mobile-exclusive features.  (Just email feedback@vark.com, or leave a comment here.)

We’re in the process of developing an SMS interface for Aardvark, and an Aardvark iPhone app, as well.  Let us know if you’d like to test either SMS or iPhone Aardvark before they go live.

Thanks!

    Works great on a blackberry. If you use the google chat application its almost as if you can ask any question about anything anywhere and have a real answer within five minutes.
    This is truly the best experience.

    Happy to hear you’re thinking along the mobile lines. It was actually one of my first thoughts (oh, iPhone app would be great!) but because Aardvark is so easy to use via email/IM, its not a must have. But super cool to hear about the SMS/iPhone direction you’re thinking about. I’d be interested in helping to test them out before the go live.

    I use Meebo on my Android 1.6 G1. It is usually stable and lets me IM aardvark on my AIM buddy list as well as my facebook and gmail accounts.

    I’d very much like to participate! Was just searching the entire web looking to see it this was even possible with Aardvark at the moment… obviously not

    I would be happy to test a Vark app on my Blackberry Bold 9700 if someone was interested in writing one…
