Forum Activity and iPhone


Recommended Posts

post-194157-1221044185_thumb.jpg

Ok my first suggestion is a feature that i've been wanting to see for quite a long time. I've often browsed the forum based on the latest activity thats displayed at the top of the board, and found that i've had to click into the post, and then navigate through to the last post.

It would be nice if there was a "Jump to last post" button somewhere where i could just go straight to the last post.

I know this feature exists on the main board, so i dont know if its feasible to add it here, but it would just be a time saver.

Secondly, my other suggestion is something that i kind of think is more a question of when and not if. Neowin Mobile (mobile.neowin.net) is great for using PDA's and WEP stuff, but on the iPhone its just a bit too basic.

Browsing Neowins full site is just painful, i find anyways due to its heavy image loading. It would be brilliant if there was an iPhone specific version of the site, it would be interesting to know what percentage of mobile traffic to Neowin the iPhone accounts for.

It would just be a nice touch, and enable me to keep Neowin open on the road.

Like i said just some suggestions, i dont know if theyre possible, or if they are already being looked into.

Click the little dot to the left of the post titles on the latest forum activity box, and it will take you to your last read post in that thread. As to the iPhone thing, I can't go into any details, but know that as a technology oriented website, we wouldn't be foolish enough to not consider doing something for it.

Ahhh, so thats what that thing is, I thought it was just a bullet point thing that signified a post. Ah well glad that feature is included :).

Brilliant, as long as somethings in the pipeline or scribbled on the back of a matchbox, I'll keep my fingers crossed :D.

We have an iPhone specific front page at mobile.neowin.net, different from the other mobile pages. We don't have a mobile forum, though, if that's what you meant.

Yeah i was referring to the forums also, a completely iPhone enhanced Neowin :)

Is it possible to get the 'little dots' on the subscribed threads page of our control panel? Whenever i check to see if there is a new post i have to go to the thread and then find the new post....

I also agree that the iphone version of the main page is a little too primitive. A forums version for the iPhone would be great! Kinda like how macrumors has a specific iPhone skin on their forums that formats everything to be easily viewed on the screen.
