Hi M, I was just thinking, my 1st stop at Geekzone is always the home page, where I check out latest forum posts.

What about a page (maybe a link at the bottom of that sidebar) that displays the last 50 or 100 posts - that way we could see basically all current conversations in all categories quite easily (without having to be subscribed to them).

Would anybody else like that??

Good suggestion. I will work on this soon.

I am currently working on the blog feature and will do this after the blog goes live.

smallscreen access to the forums would me top of my wish list.

and how 'bout some magic to resize images on news articles, if you're viewing from the mobile version.
currently it has images, such as photos of products, and they're far too big for mobile screen (and bandwidth)

Yes, you're right - I'd love to have a mobile version available - just don't have the time now.

These are the last two weeks before being able to work on Geekzone almost full time.

Things will start showing up after the magic 1 June...
