Hey We’ve Got A Sexy New Mobile Site, And Other New Stuff!


You may have noticed that our designers Ben White and Rob Hussey have been on fire lately. In the last couple of months they’ve added memberships, notifications and multiple other cool features. But there has been a little bit of a gap that needed plugged — that was our mobile site. Today, the guys have done it. By Jeeves they’ve done it.

So, our new mobile site is here — it has the same functionality as its big brother, and it looks pretty slick. Previously there was a bit of disparity between the different designs. That’s gone.

The second major addition to this new update is ‘mentions’. Folks that use twitter will know what we’re talking about. If you add an ‘@’ next to a username (ie, @Serrels) that user will be informed using the notification system we added in a previous update. This is just a way to grab people’s attention in comments and it’ll be mighty handy. I think the guys and girls that use Talk Amongst Yourselves will get a fair amount of use out of this new feature. It’s designed to make communication between everyone a little bit more efficient. Hope everyone likes it!

The third thing worthy of note is the new comment box. We’ve added a few widgets to make commenting a bit more customisable and flexible. The big news? We’ve added spoiler tags! Use them as punchlines to awesome jokes. (And also use them to hide spoilers).

Alright folks, as always — thanks for your feedback, it really helps us out and influences what we do. If you have any issues or problems feel free to drop them below.

Thanks everyone!
