The Washington Post has unveiled a new mobile site, offering an improved, more intuitive way to receive news and analysis on-the-go.

The site is now made up of five main sections: politics, business, metro, arts & living and sports, which will now be managed by two mobile editors dedicated to updating content and managing breaking news alerts.

Users in the Washington, D.C.-area will have access to customized weather, breaking sports scores and key regional news stories. Soon, visitors will be able to make a restaurant reservation, buy a movie ticket and conduct other advanced transactions directly from the site as well as receive real-time traffic routes integrating Google maps and GPS.

The mobile site is built on a proprietary platform that is entirely new to the company.
