can a test web page get posted? would we worth viewing on a mobile device.
the graphic of the page doesn't really show how it might render.
some thoughts: links across the top: how well are they going to scale for a
phone, versus a tablet, versus a PC. I know a lot of people who get
frustrated at websites 'mobilizing' their sites, resulting in silly big
buttons/links on a PC, or really narrow websites (as this graphic appears
on my not-very-widescreen monitor)
I would recommend a NEWS header before the news starts.
I don't mind starting with what amounts to the "About us" text, but from a
functionality standpoint is that better than making the navigation links
the central part of the main page? and/or can there be a separate 'mobile'
version of a front page (like we used to do for javascript) and still pass
Google's requirements?
Last, that Joe Dever quote made me realize it's been 16 years. I just got
my 11yr old son to start playing through them. :D

I took a few minutes this morning to do a quick mockup of ideas that have
been rattling around in my head for a website redesign. I don't know when
we'd be in a good position to do a redesign, but just wanted to get my
ideas down on virtual paper.

Keep in mind that this is just an image, not a live web page.
Google is kind of forcing our hand. Our current design isn't mobile
friendly according to Google (I can see their point), so our search ranking
will suffer.

More importantly, people visiting on small screens don't have a great
experience, so it would be best to fix that.
Thoughts about mobile-friendliness or about the mockup?
