"Mobile"izng FSU?

[immoimeme]

Right now, http://m.fsuniverse.net/ returns nothing. Should FSU go mobile?

Perhaps...but I have no issues using the "desktop" version of the site on my smartphone... *shrugs*

I have no problems accessing FSU with Oprea Mini from my smartphone. I use the www format.

I can access it, but reading it is an arduous task, especially scrolling through everyone's signatures - ugh!

Reading is okay for me, except I prefer to use my phone in portrait mode and I can't see the name of the poster and the entire post at the same time. I've gotten pretty good at recognizing people from their signatures. My problem is posting. I can't see all of what I'm typing in portrait mode but typing is so much harder for me in landscape mode.

There's a pretty nice iPhone app called Tapatalk for forums - maybe Sharpie could check about having FSU be compatible?

I can read FSU on my non-smart phone via the archive link: http://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/archive/index.php, but the link does not let me post.
There were some occasions I wish there was a way to post on the phone so I could give some pbp.

Also the full version FSU is rather too big for my tiny laptop and it is not easy to read and post on it. Especially when I do so in a small arena seat without a mouse. I would appreciate it a lot if mobile format is available (if it does not give admins too much hassle.)

I can read FSU, and I can even add posts, but for some reason, the adding reputation feature is really really flaky on my iPhone.

I must admit I haven't tried adding or deducting reps while browsing from cell phone. But the site works great and costs only a few kbs of data transmission with Opera, which is cool.

I had a hard time with them too. I thought that I might have reported a post rather than repped someone. But I thought that was because of my fat fingers.

There is a site called Skweezer.com that allows you to view your favorite websites quickly and more easily on mobile devices. I used it a few years ago when I only had WebTV. I don't know how well it works with FSU, though.

I tried the rep feature on my iPhone tonight, because PeterG told me to, and it seems to be able to make the pop up "You must spread around more reputation..." but it still doesn't let me rep anyone.

I'm so glad you do as told. Well, at least what **I** tell you to do!! :lol:

P.S. Did you find a solution to this?
