WAP, short for Wireless Application Protocol, has been described as the internet in your pocket.
You can use a WAP phone like any other mobile phone - but you can also use it to access internet content.
Many web publishers, including Ananova, have created special WAP sites, similar to websites but designed with the small screensize and low bandwidth in mind.
Some people have asked why Ananova the virtual newscaster is not available on our WAP site.
That is because she is waiting for the next generation of mobile devices to make her debut!
If you haven't seen Ananova's WAP site in action, try out our online WAP emulator.
