GB on your mobile
As many of you will know already, we've been working on a mobile version of the GONEboarding website, initially focusing on providing a lightweight, easier to navigate site for your mobile devices. We've been focusing on the key areas of the site that are likely to be the most commonly used on mobile devices, i.e. forums/latest posts & private-mail.
The first version of our mobile site is now live, so if you simply go to www.goneboarding.co.uk on your mobile device, you'll automatically be taken to the mobile version of the site. You can still navigate to the normal site if you like, via the link on the mobile site menu.
If you've got any feedback or suggestions for the mobile site, please let us know. |
