Boy that's starting to get complicated. I'm already, even before actually starting, to long for the days of single, isolated websites. I would tend to ignore the subdomains for now, except for the fact that subdomains using "mobile" are coming on so strong and are part of my application-building plan... mobile.xyz.com. It seems, especially with the mobile dev world, that it would be a lot simpler, and perhaps more efficient in the end, to have one MSOC app for desktop sites and another MSOC app for the same site in a mobile version. I'm going to have to think on this one for awhile to come up with a sound, long-term (as long as possible in this fast changing landscape) plan. I don't want to get half-way down this path of app development and then realize I need to start all over. Perhaps some of you smart people on the list could blog (in-depth) about how to go about this (in detail!).
