  5. Integration with Twitter and Facebook for mobile helps people easily share content from the mobile version of the blog
  6. For WordPress users: no dependency on your WordPress installation whatsoever! All mobile traffic is handled by MobStac servers without interfering with your main site
  7. Freedom to set up a custom domain (e.g., m.example.com)
  8. You’ll always get great support, so that you never have to worry about debugging problems yourself .
