That said, if I want to see what device somebody is using, why wouldn't I go to their own site's About page (or similar area)? Yes, I can find in one place what devices a very small set of influential mobile users have, but I can't imagine I'd care enough to subscribe or visit that often. Of course, I never understood people putting their device list in forum signatures, either, as if people need to be reminded about your devices every post you make. That's why I like the "View MyPDA" feature of the forums here. I put my list of devices on my <a href="http://history.svpocketpc.com" rel="nofollow">History page</a> where it's easy to find, but unobtrusive. But I don't expect many people to care. :) I don't get Twitter or Jaiku, either. There's nobody I care to follow that closely. Maybe I'm just not Web 2.0 cool, though. :D Steve It’s certainly a nice looking site.
