Hello,
You can now view a mobile friendly version of Mumsnet using m.mumsnet.com/

Hope you find that easier - do let us know your feedback.

ooooh fab! Will go see in a bit - need the laptop on for a wee while.

TIA!

lostinwales · 08/10/2010 14:30

Ooh, that is soo much easier to view, do I get the prize for first one?

lostinwales · 08/10/2010 14:31

I was first!

TheChewyToffeeMum · 08/10/2010 14:31

Oh, I like it - looking at it on my Kindle now. I can't get the log in to work though - nothing happens when I click on the button. Is this just a problem with the Kindle?

DanceInTheDark · 08/10/2010 14:31

on quick glance - it look sfab - nice and simple. It doesn't lay out correctly onBB browser (but thats ok) and the spacing is HUGE on Opera mini browser but will make it much easier to MN in the playground

lostinwales · 08/10/2010 14:34

I can post easily from my phone too, you have just made the HOURS I spend every week watching swimming/sports so much easier!

ant3nna · 08/10/2010 14:35

Much better for viewing. The 'add message' box and the boxes to put your nickname and password in are really small in comparison to everything else (or at least it does on my iphone) so it all looks really out of proportion.

I am too distracted by the shiny newness to care though Grin

AdamTech · 08/10/2010 14:40

The add message box should get bigger when you're adding a message, on your iPhone, ant3nna, because the iPhone should zoom you in.

ethelina · 08/10/2010 14:49

Ooh likey! Grin now when I'm feeding at 3am I can MN properly without squinting dopily (sp?)at the iPhone screen and continually hitting the wrong button. Well done mnhq good start. Is this available for use from now on or just a test?

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 08/10/2010 14:50

In theory I like, but it displays a bit oddly in Opera Mini - masses of white space around everything - don't hate me but I prefer the look of the non-mobile version. I do like the lack of clutter though.

ethelina · 08/10/2010 14:54

Can't seem to bookmark on iPhone though which I can on the normal site. Will this feature be added or is it there and I'm missing it? Hope it will be there it's a good tweak.

IMoveTheStars · 08/10/2010 14:55

Brilliant, thank you! Haven't looked at it on my phone yet, but marking my place for later so I don't forget.

Rockbird · 08/10/2010 14:56

Much much much much better :) thank oh

No more random pressing on that poxy YouTube box!

StarExpat · 08/10/2010 14:57

Thank you

ant3nna · 08/10/2010 14:58

I know it zooms in but if you then want to look back at the thread before you've posted (because you've forgotten what exactly it was you wanted to post) then you have to zoom out, read the posts again and then zoom back in or press done, read the post again then click back into the textbox to zoom in again.

If it was all in proportion I could just scroll back up, check that the thread said what I thought it did then scroll back down to continue with my post.

ant3nna · 08/10/2010 14:59

Sorry for being a whinge. I am appreciative of the hard work, honest Smile

WhatTheWhat · 08/10/2010 15:02

The Kindle has internet access!!!

Alt-tabs to Amazon immediately....

BecauseImWorthIt · 08/10/2010 15:10

ooooh - fab!

TheChewyToffeeMum · 08/10/2010 15:33

Don't get too excited WhatTheWhat! It is not a great browser but does the job when you really need to Mumsnet.

LilRedWG · 08/10/2010 16:09

ooo - thanks. will check that out later.

Dylthan · 08/10/2010 16:19

Ooh I love it so much easier to use with an iPod touch in one hand and a sleeping baby on the other. Thank you!

catinthehat2 · 08/10/2010 16:24

The emotions are very wee and the post a message font is wee as well. Doesn't seem zoom in proportion to the posts I am reading

catinthehat2 · 08/10/2010 16:25

tethersend · 08/10/2010 16:32
