Replace Handstory

Requesting suggestions to replace Handstory. I am not very tech savvy so I need to keep it simple. Thanks in advance.

elveejay, my favorite alternatives are iSilo (commercial) and Plucker (free). For iSilo, you can find a huge list of pre-compiled mobile channels which makes the transition easier, especially if you are not too tech savvy.

Feel free to ask for help if you get stuck somewhere!!

I suggest at least trying Plucker before buying iSilo. You might find it fits your needs perfectly, and save a little money at the same time.

I like iSilo. It does have a free version, and if you don't ask for much from the reader it might be perfect for you. If you ask for more, then the commercial version might do. The desktop component that provides the conversions is free.

I looked at Plucker when I was looking to replace AvantGo, but it was difficult to understand (at least the Mac desktop component.) But, it could've been just me.
