While I was off on my Gypsy Tour<\/a> (about which I will soon be blogging), I checked out my blogs on my new Android cell phone. What I saw were two-inch by four-inch versions, so tiny you couldn’t read what was there . . . like looking through a telescope backwards.<\/p>\n

I decided to do something for readers with Droids and iPhones. Voil\u00e0!<\/em> It is done. If you call up Paul’s Thing on your desktop or laptop you’ll see the complete blog as before. If you call it up on a mobile device, you’ll see a streamlined version that fits the small screen, as in the graphics below. It’s all automatic . . . you don’t have to do a thing.<\/p>\n

Yes, these are crappy photos, but what do you expect? I took them myself!\u00a0 Click any thumbnail to see a larger version:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Left to right: the main page; scrolling down to see links to static pages and the search bar; an individual entry.\u00a0 All formatted to fit the small screen on your mobile device.<\/p>\n

Slick, eh? Don’t say I never did you any favors!<\/p>\n

p.s. See the little house to the left of Paul’s Thing in the first photo?\u00a0 Don’t you just want to hide under it?\u00a0 You know, from the Space Invaders?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
