Mobile friendly version
Now I'm the owner of a flashy new G1 google phone I'd quite like it if there was a mobile friendly version of the site that made it a bit easier to view on a phone. The 3 column layout could be simply made into a single column for phones by placing one column on top of another.
At the moment using the site on my phone is a bit of a chore, especially the login process which messes up rather badly because the javascript login box seems to go crazy and keeps jumping away from me when ever I scroll it into view. A non-javascript (or at least minimal javascript) alternative for phones would be nice too.
This isn't really a big deal though it would be nice if I could post while on the bus to work or somewhere I don't have access to a computer when the inspiration bug bites and at the moment it's really just too difficult to do.
If making writing is a little too difficult, making the reading experience on the phone a little easier would be a nice addition, as well as possibly laying the groundwork for adding writing in the future.

Inappropriate?Yeah, I use the site on my iPhone pretty regularly and I know what you mean about the login box. If you need to login from a mobile device, I'd suggest you use the non-popup version of the login page. I don't advertise it because it looks pretty lame, but it's there and it works the same as the modal:

If you're already logged in, it tosses you to the homepage.
I don't have a G1 to test on, but I do have plans to make a bit of a more mobile-friendly version of the site later this year (probably something like the way Twitter or Facebook do it.)
I’m confident

this is one of the best points

Inappropriate?I can't get the rating function to work on my iPhone... Is there a way around the problem? -
Inappropriate?I tried the site on the G1, and it looks surprisingly good. Wish they scaled pages the way the iPhone does, though. I'll get a "lite" mobile version up eventually, but it'll take some time.
Ratings should work on the iPhone - the trick is to get the hover you have to hold down your finger on the stars. If you hold long enough it should select the rating too. At least, it works for me... ;)
