It's actually better on a lower resolution screen than it is on a full browser. Haven't tried it on a tablet yet, but it looks like maybe that was what they designed it around? Just odd.That's what I thought too, and I was surprised they didn't use a responsive design (MMQB is responsive); guess that's one current trend they skipped. I'll have to check it out on iPhone and iPad.
Just tried it on my phone, it does render well there. Tried it on my daughter's Ipad, it loads really, really slowly. Looks like they still have some kinks to work out.The new design is 100% designed around tablets and phones. The new format makes using the touchscreen to scroll and click links easier. Does seem like way too much for a homepage to load up when not using wifi though.
Someone above said Pinterest and it really does have that vibe to it. I agree on the tablet/phone focus, but given that I do about 1% of my browsing on my phone (still haven't seen the need for a tablet for me), it's not of much use to me and I may carry my traffic elsewhere. It's pretty unwieldy on my MBP.
