MU is an acronym for Mobile URL. This service was designed to make it easy to use your mobile device to see a web page you're viewing on your desktop browser. Using a combination of URL redirection and a bookmarklet, we made a handoff two clicks away, allowing you to quickly get off your butt and on your feet! We allowed you to create a channel on which to broadcast web pages.
MU was initially developed at the dawn of the smart phone, when it was still a secondary device. Since then, though, phones have grown to become the primary computing device for many, and the only device some people use to get online. While there has been decreasing need for the singular service MU first provided, we do still see its functionality intersecting with some of our other service offerings. To that end . . .
MU functionality has now been subsumed by our Weǎve service, which is our new "live" link tracker (hopefully). Users with existing MU channels should still be able to work with them like they always have, and their broadcast links will now be saved to a corresponding mu loom. Everyone else should start by setting up a new name directly on Weǎve.
