    Default Mobile friendly FFBC.com?

    I'm just curious about the possibility of a mobile friendly version of the site here. I browse on my phone quite often and I attempted to cruise forums on my phone. From the homepage I tried the forum link and it didn't work on my phone. In the end it's no big deal, I can always bookmark the forum url here but I was just wondering if anyone had thought of making FFBC.com compatible with mobile browsers.

    I can see the BCFR site with my BB Bold 9700 using Bolt viewer, but not this site.

    You didn't mention what kind of phone you were using JLJ. Like Rick wrote in his blog and in this forum thread, there is a great little app for the iPhone if that's what you're using. If you're using a Nokia or BB, you're going to have to wait for that version to be released. If you don't have a nokia/BB you'll be restricted to surfing the site through a browser.

    To condense a website such as this one into a mobile version takes a lot of work and it could be a full time job for a few weeks, it's that involved. I know how frustrating it was surfing the site on my iPod touch, that's why I told Rick about Tapatalk.

    Thanks for the replies, I had taken note of the Tapatalk thread as well, but don't have an iphone

    I tried going directly to the url for the forums main page here and it didn't work, has for me in the past on other forums however. No worries though, I spend far too much time on my phone as it is without having this site to entice me onto it more. I appreciate the amount of work it takes to keep this site going and wasn't requesting that a mobile version be created, however awesome that'd be. Thanks anyways for the site, you have my eternal gratitude that it exists.
