Nowadays, websites are specifically designed for a small-screen sized device, which is of course a leap towards the future; however, the number of such websites is not huge.

With some minute tweaks a benchmark could be designed which would allow mobile device users to access any website.

There is an organization by the name of W3C which administers a lot of web standards (e.g.: HTML). This organization has already taken a few strides to improve usability of mobile internet. They are currently working on the interoperability between mobile devices. W3C has also attempted to lay down standards which would greatly benefit Mobile Internet Access.
