Hands up everyone who wants to try out the BRAND NEW MUMSNET MOBILE SITE

Hello comrades

As lots of you will know, we've been developing a brand new, souped up version of the Mumsnet mobile site for seven geological eras quite a long time now.

We can now exclusively reveal that the new mobile site is... TOTALLY AND UTTERLY ABOUT TO BE RELEASED, LIKE, ANY TIME NOW.

We've tested it on loads of MNers (Flowers to those who have helped out) but inevitably there will be glitches that only reveal themselves once tens of thousands of you dive in and start using it - so please use this thread to let us know about those (with the usual info about browsers and devices).

And if you like it, please pass along Cake and Wine to ShamTech, BrunoTech, JessicaMumsnet and all the other techs and MHQers who have been working their digits off on this.

The new improved apps are coming, honest... but in the meantime, if the old apps are driving you bonkers, do please take the new mobile site for a test drive.

Will we be able to tell instantly? Is it a tweak or a full on change?

Ok

It is a full-on change. Like when they change the Doctor.

Give it a go in about ten minutes...

Still the same from what I can see. Mind you, I've not heard the swishing of the tardis yet...

When we smash the champagne bottle against the side of the code I may not fully understand the process you'll see it as soon as you load a new page.

We've asked ShamTech to shout a countdown across the office but he's not playing ball. However there is a distinct stirring in the Tech area.

Are we going to get the TARDIS emoticon back for this regeneration, then?

RustyBear · 20/08/2014 15:31

Or do we have to make do with KateSMumsnet's version?

I don't know if this is relevant, but I can't actually post on MN from my phone at the moment.

Have had to use tablet with non-mobile site.
