Mobile access to Ideastorm.com seems a bit flakey and does not render well on small form factor devices.

Home page seems to load fine on a WiFi connection, however it times out on 3G/4G connections, more often than not resulting in a "cannot open the page because it could not connect to the server" errors.

Consider making a lightweight mobile-friendly version of the site for east access and navigation on-the-go.

    @Cy_J not necessarily stripping off functionality, just make it more "mobile frields". A great example is http://www.southwest.com/ versus http://mobile.southwest.com/.
    • Make the home page navigation more "touch" friendly and less graphics heavy. Simple vertical menu with the key function areas, like:
      • Recent Ideas
      • Trending Ideas
      • My Ideas
      • Storm Session
      • My Profile
      • etc.
    • For the subsequent pages, again, less reliant on graphics and more small-form-factor-friendly
    Overall very pelased with the new look and feel, keep up the great work.

    Thank you for the feedback.  What do you think should be stripped from the site for a mobile version?
