We're very pleased to announce a mobile-optimized version of Ricochet.  Just point your smartphone's browser to...

m.ricochet.com

 m.ricochet.com

... and you'll see Ricochet in all its narrow-columned, sans serif glory.  The release also swaps in an HTML5-based audio player for better compatibility across devices.

Our goal, of course, is to remove every possible barrier between you and the conversation & collaboration on Ricochet. So, now you'll be able to respond to Ricochet's tug during your day's inevitable pauses: say, when the Occupy movement takes it to The Man by shutting down your burg's bus system, or if your Davos-bound G5 is getting topped off with carbon offset credits. If it's wait time, it's Ricochet time.

This is brand spanking new, and we're aware of a few bugs.  Please consider it a beta product, and we'd appreciate it if you could report any new bugs to support@ricochet.com.  Be sure to include your browser version and operation system.

Will that option be device-specific, Logo? So the same user can view the mobile one on an iPhone, say, and the full site on an iPad?

The mobile site looks very good, incidentally. Well done!

Any chance for an iPhone app? I hate using Safari...

...I think I have fixed the caching bug.  If anyone sees it again, please email support@ricochet.com. ยท Dec 9 at 4:58pm

Ah, this explains the persistent cough I've been fighting the last few weeks. You really do work miracles!

I almost never can log on to the website from my phone.  Android with the stock web browser.  I get the 10 times and your out log in error.

Having same problem with the new address also.

BradnSA, and anyone else with problems, please send more details to support@ricochet.com. It's much easier to discuss specifics and find out what is wrong in your individual case over email than in a public discussion. We cannot test every possible device in every possible configuration, so just saying something doesn't work is not as helpful as knowing more about your situation. Thanks!

Very nice. How do we get to the stuff that is normally on the far right side? I'm talking about the podcast and similar information.
