Thats great if you own your own business or work from home. Some of us only have small windows of time throughout the day to sneak into the crapper and post while dropping a duece like I am now on my Galaxly 3gS on the pot taking a dump while Im at work.

Busted!

So, let me guess, your boss has been told you have irritable bowel syndrome then?

That theory has been advanced, yes.

By the way, Veta, how is the Money Pit dig going on Oak Island, NS?

Have you found the Ark yet?

As far as the outage, you can blame the vast and un-ending security concerns brought forth by cellphone site-reading applications that people insist on using instead of safe and secure browsers using up-to-date security policies. That would be waaayyy more believable than a simple power outage anyway...

We could eliminate all of these technology problems easily. We could just go back to reading newspapers.

I for one have a family that I spend my non working hours with. Grabbing a quick look at .net from my phone is how I stay connected.

sorry to have offended your delicate sensibilities.

I figured with all the 49ers posts as of late the pipes were a little jammed. According to Lynch no one should be freakin' though when this happens.

To prevent Anguish from changing his username to "EvenMoreAnguish", allow me (an attempt) to clarify, while you wash behind your ears:

It is absolutely NOT the accessing of our beloved site via the usage of a mobile device that is in any way to be considered a perceived no-no. In fact, one of the major reasons for our recent site re-design was to provide users of surface's, tablets, notes, and cells, a much better site experience. Without users (safely) accessing from any one of the multitude of remote devices and whenever they can sneak the opportunity, this place might be a ghost town. Again, I was in NO WAY discouraging any type of .NET surfing via mobile.

Rather, my barb was squarely directed toward the unsecure mobile applications used to read and respond to the site in a (perceived) "better way". Many of you are familiar with the app which has a name that rhymes with "Crap-on-rock"? It summarizes content for you and that's all great, but It is all the tracking and location baggage un-knowingly riding into the site with you and being stored on your device while you use it that creates countless headaches and security challenges for developers and webmasters everywhere.

It is not your fault. Nope. You are only trying to get your Hawks stuff the quickest and easiest way you can while peeing with one hand and holding your phone with the other, right?. Trust me, Rock and Anguish did not create and attach any signposts on the way to .NET encouraging the use of such crap. It is the cookies you picked up from navigating to "Ford Granada Owner's Society" that grabbed you. The next site you went to after figuring out what color wire is going to the negative side of the wiper motor was us, and your phone told you, "This site uses "Keep-Track-of-you-while-you-talk", would you like to use it? You said "yes", your defaults were set, and the rest is history. Now your every move is not only watched and tracked by Verizon (or whomever your provider is) but all of your activity goes through Crappy-jock's) server too. No wonder your stuff runs so slow...

I would encourage anyone utilizing one of these "mobilizing" apps to view .NET consider selecting "view as web-page" (or similar setting) as their default mode of access on their mobile device, or, for your phone's medium to long-term health, removing the reader-app altogether. Turn your display sideways if you can. By doin so, a wonderous world of brilliant Seahawks color schemes, creative fonts, and easy-access buttons await those who simply use their remote device's default web browser. You will see .NET in all its glory, just as the developer intended. As an added benefit, frequent software security updates provide mobile device users with an increased level of security that is not afforded by using alternative reading and responding applications. Lock up much?

Who cares if you gotta use two hands, your experience will be much more pleasant, I promise you. Who knows, with one less database following your every move you make, you might enjoy a little more ambiguity when the apocalypse occurs. :mrgreen:

Stop looking at midget porn on your phone and using tapatalk. It's bad for .NET.

MODERSHIP!

That with your avatar made my day. LMAO

 

[Blitzer88]

I said something positive and it caused the site to crash instantly.

Well now that makes sense, good going, blitzer!

Many paragraphs full of awesome!

The problem for me is the sizing of fonts and icons on mobile. Changing the site width was great, but I still can't actually read anything or easily navigate without a lot of zooming in and out.

See the difference in these two screen shots.

The first one is beautiful--but I can't read anything...

 

[Anonymous]

Isn't the top one sooooo much prettier?

Okay, Sis, your first problem is the Apple i-product... (but that is an entirely different issue). Go to your main browser settings and look for anything related to font size and increase the value. Not being as familiar with the lower forms of mobile (like any of the "i" stuff), I can't tell you exactly where to find it, but increase the size of the fonts. Another setting is the zooming. You can override or customize that if you have a 3 or better series mobile. That should help.

The best way to do anything would be to trade that i-mobile in for a nice Samsung S-series, 4 or better. Since the S-5's came out they are practically giving away the S-4's these days. Consider it. You won't be sorry, especially when you want to integrate your laptop and phone. A wondrous world awaits when you walk away from i-life.

Oh, and zooming is a part of mobile life. We all have to do it sometimes in order to preserve the artforms of life like .NET. We do what we have to do to get rid of reading our wondrous site with those damn red/orange fonts and white background. Yuck!
