It's the final countdown: More site features. Let's go mobile!
By cjcastillo in Digital Babble
March 26, 2009

In case you didn't know, we are launching a new design for VictoriaAdvocate.com Monday. Yes, Monday!

I posted a blog earlier about navigation changes you will see.

Here is one new feature you will find when we launch our new site Monday.

New mobile site
Cell phone and mobile device users, rejoice! We now have a mobile site that makes it easy to view our content.

Here are some screenshots of our mobile site. I took these shots on my iPhone.

    Lauren -  1 - All I can say about the Spam guy...JAZZ HANDS!

    2 - Yes, that is exactly why I chose that title, had the song in mind. I'll have to look it up on YouTube.

    3 - I am very excited too!

    I would like to make a few observations:
    1: The SPAM man looks scary in that 'I'm smiling, but I'm about to go psycho' kind of way.
    2: You need the song "The Final Countdown" to go with this blog title.
    3: Have I ever told you how excited I am about the new system?
    Have a nice day.

    Houston might have some left over Ike supplies. I'll hunt down some spam, bottled water for you and throw in a good book.

    roberttx - We are expecting complaints. It is expected with redesigns. But for the most part I hope everyone will enjoy the new site. It will take some getting used to the new look and navigation changes. I'll probably be camped out at the Advocate for the next few weeks helping people out.  Send supplies! I like PopTarts. Thanks for your comments!

    I predict lots of complaining and whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiining. This is the same group of people that can not figure out how to close their trash can lids.

    Looks good, great job on the mobile site !

    VISDMom - Oh, sorry I should have made it clear.  The mobile version is not live yet. It will be live on Monday. Thanks, I've updated my post.

    CJ...Maybe I missed it somewhere...is the mobile version live yet?  I tried it on my iPhone and did not get your picture above.  What should I type in as a URL?  Thanks!
