MXSW re-introduces mobile version of website, adds food & drink forums

MXSWSquareLogo150If you’re reading this on a smartphone or tablet, you probably noticed MXSW has re-introduced a mobile version of the website. This is something MXSW offered in 2012, but discontinued when it became too buggy. Now, a new and improved version is back.

On the bottom of your phone or tablet screen, you should see a setting that lets you toggle between a desktop version and a mobile version. All the same features are available for both, just displayed in slightly different ways. For example, in the mobile version you can touch the button to the right of the MXSW logo to access a pulldown menu of links.

There’s even a simple way to add a MXSW button on your home screen, just like all your apps. See how to do it in just three two steps here.

The other change you may have noticed today is the addition of MXSW forums. There are three discussion boards – beer, food, and wine – where you can ask questions, share opinions, publicize news and events, and interact with other MXSW readers. Please play nice.

To find the forums, look for the “Forums” link beneath the MXSW logo on desktop computers, or to the right of the logo on mobile devices. The first time you leave a question or comment, there’s a simple email verification (to deter spammers).
