Is TapaTalk pervasive enough for all of you? Alternatives?

I have done my due diligence TapaTalk and just want to make sure it's the right direction. There would be a bit of work on our part, but something that I am interested in putting time towards (this would not be an overnight thing, but something over the coming months).

Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks.

Secondly, do not entrust this project to bip. You know it will turn to crap.

hollie - if you don't have me on ignore.. lol. how did you get this site to update automatically? is that something that specific to the iphone?

martin - im here frequently on my droid incredible. viewing the site is no problem, but posting is extremely annoying so an app that might make it easier would work for me. although everyone else would hear from me alot more, so maybe you don't want to do that lol.

how is posting annoying?

well, alot of it has to do with the fact that this site doesn't have a "mobile version." alot of sites have mobile versions and what that means is that the mobile version kinda shrinks and resizes the size down to the mobile browser. specifically where this becomes a problem on THIS site is that alot of times the screen won't resize to the proper size so you have to zoom really far in to see what you're typing, the problem with that is that you'll be typing but won't be able to see it because it's went off the screen, because it's so far zoomed in. also for some reason with this site specifically when i try and go back to correct something that i've typed it won't allow me to select that spot and ill have to delete everything.

make sense? my response is kinda convoluted.

I agree with NYK4eva. I have a Droid 2/Dolphin browser and posting is a pain for a lot of the reasons NYK mentions. Another problem I have is that sometimes when the typing starts on another line the box won't scroll down so that I can see what I'm typing. I need to type half the line before it will scroll down on it's own. I know nothing about TapaTalk so I can't tell you if that was a solution. If I was still the intern I would have kept up with emerging trends and would be on top of this like bacon on a whore. But you guys ruined it and will now need to figure it out on your own.

i'm surprised you haven't found another job yet bip.

martin - i'm using the same browser as bip (dolphin) and i have the same issue he spoke of, forgot to include that.

This is why you don't get on the bad side of the Russian mob

A seperate css for mobile might make sense - or set up a m.ultimateknicks.com version formatted for mobile.

Same here, on a droid x. Reading isn't so much an issue, just posting as others have mentioned. You have to zoom, then there is your keyboard which will cover what your doing. I think making the mobile version of the site would be the way to go. Not sure what would be involved in that.

there must a be a better, free, way. there always is, martin.
