Slashdot Mobile: Now For Tablets As Well As Phones

Posted by timothy on from the ensmallening dept.

Gaurav Kuchhal (Head of Product, Slashdot) writes "Slashdot Mobile has finally made it out of the gates for tablets as well as phones. The Mobile site for phones launched some weeks back, but now you can take advantage of the changes we've made to read Slashdot easier to read through touch-screen devices on tablets as well as phones. That includes features we've folded in to the mobile version from the desktop-browser view of the site, so you can scan user profiles, sip from the Firehose, and keep up with notifications. See this blog post for more details, and keep the feedback coming. If you see a problem, please tell us about it!"

    Serious question. Why did you create a separate web site rather than just use a different stylesheet with the "handheld" css media type?

    Sincerely. Even though I still use this system that I banged together a few years ago (more info here), the new mbeta page looks really nice.
