I love the idea of an iPad-friendly web version of your great website, but you have some work to do on it yet … It doesn’t work properly on iPad. Yet.
When I go to worldairlinenews.wordpress.com I get a hugely enlarged (and hugely pixellated) portion of a photo with a “swipe me” tag. Okay, after swiping I get a new page with a grouping of separate articles. Clicking on any one of them brings up the article, yes, so in that regard it works, but I personally don’t much like that format. I like your regular online (non-iPad) format with the larger-size photos not over-written with the relevant headlines.
So I click on “view standard site”. Nice, I get the standard site. I like that. But now the ability to swipe horizontally to see the next article, or vertically to view more text of any given article, becomes very problematic. Sometimes it works, other times it locks up the horizontal swipe capability. Also, the vertical swipe is very jerky and hard to control.I very much enjoy your website and your excellent coverage of airline news. I hope you can work out these kinks in the iPad compatibility.
Thank you Walter. This is the version (so far) that comes with the blogging software. Click on the banner on your iPad and it will go to original blog entry.
Thanks for the support.
