Connect with the upwardly mobile

  
 
Mobile devices have become indispensable for people on-the-move and away from their computers. Globeandmail.mobi delivers all of the news and information readers have come to expect from The Globe and Mail's websites--news headlines, sports scores, market updates and weather--directly to any Web-enabled mobile device such as a BlackBerry, Smartphone or PDA web-browser.

Integrated into our content are mobile advertising opportunities that allow advertisers to target the on-the-go reader wherever they are and whatever they are doing.

The Globe and Mail iPhone app

  
 

We have developed a standalone iPhone application, available to be downloaded from the App Store in iTunes, that delivers Globe and Mail stories that are optimized for the iPhone screen.

As articles are uploaded to globeandmail.com they are automatically ported to the iPhone application along with full text and images from the website.

Each article features:
  • A rating system that will feed into the 'popular articles’ tab
  • Readers are able to easily switch to the next or previous article
  • Optional social media interaction: Sharing to Facebook, Twitter and via Email

Position your mobile message alongside premium content

  
 
The Globe and Mail’s reputation for delivering the best news content and analysis is unsurpassed in newspaper, magazine and online formats. Positioning your brand on our mobile platform delivers your message to smart consumers who want to stay connected to what’s going on in the world--anytime, anywhere!

By advertising on our mobile service, you can extend your connection to the best educated, most affluent and media-savvy audience in Canada.
