MNHQ CALLING: sign in here if you want to test stuff for us (on-site stuff that is)

Hello

We've got lots of new whizzy functions and apps and mobile sites and whatnot upcoming and we'd like to have a bunch of MNers we can call on to test things for us before we release them into the wild to cause havoc on the boards

Some things will be fairly discrete and quick to test and feed back on; others will be big things (like the apps and mobile sites) and will require you to use them for a few days and have a good poke around.

Of course by volunteering now you're not committing to anything - we'll always contact you first to ask if you're still up for it, and if you can't do it or don't see the mail in time that's absolutely fine.

So if in principle you'd like to be in our testers' group, please sign up here and let us know the following:

  1. how you mostly use MN (desktop site, mobile site, app)
  2. which device you usually use (phone, tablet, desktop, laptop etc)
  3. which operating system runs on the device you usually use (Windows, Apple OSs, Android, Linux etc)

Thanks v much
MNHQ x

I wold be interested in doing this. I'm very clued up on all things Mac and have a Mac, MacBook Pro, iPad, iPad mini and an iphone .... (sad but true) Blush I am quite a whizz on iOS privacy and security

I use the desktop site as the app and mobile site are a bit frustrating

I use ios7.1.1 on my iPad and iPhone (iPad 2 and iPhone 4s )

I use MN every day.

Fram · 04/06/2014 00:49

I'd be happy to help.
I use safari on a macbook (ancient) and android smartphone (also ancient). Oh and a 'kindle experimental browser'!
I'm guessing I'd be good for legacy systems... Grin

Happy to help.

I mostly use the app (though I'm not that keen on it) on iPhone/iPad.

I sometimes use the mobile site on safari (but it logs me out all the time so not very often)

I also use both internet explorer and google on a windows 8 laptop and occasionally safari on a MacBook.

I usually use the Apple iPhone app on my phone, occasionally on Mac as well. We also have a iPad and can always download the app on there if needed to. I am happy to volunteer.
