- linkmotif 11y agoYeah I love this too.
- phragg 11y agoIsn't this what the mobile reader on iOS is for?
- unicornporn 11y agoThat works excellent for individual pages and articles. But you have to get to them via the information and graphics heavy site, because for extracting the most important navigational components the mobile reader will not work very well.
- nashashmi 11y ago+1. I wish every site was designed first like this, then enhanced with CSS, then enhanced with JS. That is called progressive fallback, where CSS/JS is used for the enhancement of content, not the element of the content.
- keithpeter 11y agoI wish you were designing all the Web sites. Would the user be able to switch off the CSS/JS at will irrespective of the capabilities of their http client?
- somebehemoth 11y agoAgreed. However, I learned it as "progressive enhancement". http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_enhancement http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_enhancement
- insertnickname 11y agoIt also works well on a desktop.
- druddha 11y agoI suspect corporate news orgs don't support text-only versions of their site due to a lack of display ads. I think BBC has one, but every time I go to it on a mobile device, I am redirected to the media-heavy mobile site.
