“This is a natural evolution for our product,” says Olivier Legrand, general manager of The Wall Street Journal Digital Network in Asia. He adds that the publication has already released regional websites, regional BlackBerry applications and local language sites.
Users looking to access the full mobile site must be paying WSJ.com subscribers.
Meanwhile, the Financial Times yesterday launched an iPhone application for its FT-branded Asian mini-travel guides known as the Little Book of Business Travel.
The application will be free of charge for consumers and contain travel content relating to Bejing, Hong Kong, Macau and Shanghai and primarily written by FT journalists. The Little Book of Business Travel was first published last November, and also available to Blackberry Bold users.
