Cligs Mobile is Go

Today’s update is relatively minor but nevertheless important: the Cligs Mobile version. I just installed a mobile device detector on Cligs. Now when Cligs detects a mobile device like a phone or a PDA, it sends a mobile-friendly version of the page.

We can debate whether the new mobile version is mobile-optimized or mobile-friendly. It’s not optimized and there are some things that it can do better. It certainly isn’t optimized for any screen resolution. However, it’s still perfectly fine and should work on a diversity of mobile devices.

Why do this? So you can check your stats on the go. Hey, I’m as addicted to the mobile web and the social media scene as anyone and I want my clig statistics wherever I am. It’s the future, and Cligs is ready

So how do you see it? Easy, from your mobile device, browse to http://cli.gs/ or any page really, and the Cligs system should automatically send you the mobile friendly version.

Obviously I don’t have many mobile phones and PDAs (and I’m a gadget freak), so I’ve only tested this on a small number of devices. Please test it with your devices and let me know if something is broken.

Note that the blog is not yet using the mobile-friendly version and will continue to show the design that was launched yesterday. That design is OK on a mobile phone but not ideal.
