Comment on The story of my startup (and the Google/YouTube API trap)

Comments

I'd like to take this opportunity to rant against sites that have some global forward set up to bounce a mobile user from any page on the site to the mobile home page. I'd love to read your post, but I'm on a train right now with my iPhone and the only page you're willing to serve me is your main app page. Those kinds of redirects should only be set up for the home page.

Or if you're going to redirect to the mobile version on pages other than the home page, make sure you're redirecting to the same article, just formatted differently.

I second that. I'm on vacation.
