The Oblique Strategies as a MIDlet

What are oblique strategies?

Not much actually; an oblique strategy is a mere line of text: a question, a hint, sometimes only a word. Whenever you have a problem and you don't know how to solve it, let Obstrat give you a randomly chosen oblique strategy and think about it for a while, and how it applies to your current problem.

It is surprisingly helpful sometimes.

See this web site for details about Oblique Strategies. I collected all strategies I could find there, whether I liked them or not. See also the wikipedia article.
The original oblique strategies were a deck of cards created by Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt.
