For those readers who can’t cope with being away from Diversity at all times – I’m stoked to say that this morning I rolled out a mobile version of the blog.
Set to auto-sense phones and PDAs, mobile users get a nice svelte experience that is quick and mobile-data light.
Nice!

Nice … how?
see I could tell you but I'd have to shoot you…… of course you could always go to http://www.andymoore.info/wordpress-mobile-plugin… or you could if you used wordpress!
Hey Ben, Nice work! If you want to make it look really good on the iphone/ipod touch you need to add something like this to set the viewport size. This way it fits the screen on first load and the viewer doesn't have to pinch/zoom to read the content. I don't have an iphone but use Safari on the ipod touch for dev purposes. Just adding the viewport meta tag combined with a few simple css changes for adjusting to the landscape view and you get an awesome little app.
Oops.. my code got slayed.. the meta goes something like this.. name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1.0; minimum-scale=1.0; maximum-scale=3.0;"
