Hands up everyone who wants to try out the BRAND NEW MUMSNET MOBILE SITE

Hello comrades

As lots of you will know, we've been developing a brand new, souped up version of the Mumsnet mobile site for seven geological eras quite a long time now.

We can now exclusively reveal that the new mobile site is... TOTALLY AND UTTERLY ABOUT TO BE RELEASED, LIKE, ANY TIME NOW.

We've tested it on loads of MNers (Flowers to those who have helped out) but inevitably there will be glitches that only reveal themselves once tens of thousands of you dive in and start using it - so please use this thread to let us know about those (with the usual info about browsers and devices).

And if you like it, please pass along Cake and Wine to ShamTech, BrunoTech, JessicaMumsnet and all the other techs and MHQers who have been working their digits off on this.

The new improved apps are coming, honest... but in the meantime, if the old apps are driving you bonkers, do please take the new mobile site for a test drive.

...?

JulesJules · 20/08/2014 14:47

Finger poised...

trikken · 20/08/2014 14:48

Will we be able to tell instantly? Is it a tweak or a full on change?

PseudoBadger · 20/08/2014 14:52

Ok

RowanMumsnet · 20/08/2014 14:55

It is a full-on change. Like when they change the Doctor.

Give it a go in about ten minutes...

Right MNHQ! I have my volume turned up and I fully expect a tardis noise to announce the arrival of the new site you do realise everyone will moan don't you

trikken · 20/08/2014 15:00

Ooh exciting!

I've seen a preview. Did you sort out the windows phone glitches?

Cocolepew · 20/08/2014 15:05

Im on the mobile site now , will it magically change ?
Im a bit scared .

trikken · 20/08/2014 15:06

Im refreshing my page constantly waiting for the regeneration.

NotMrsTumble · 20/08/2014 15:09

Still the same from what I can see. Mind you, I've not heard the swishing of the tardis yet...

When we smash the champagne bottle against the side of the code I may not fully understand the process you'll see it as soon as you load a new page.

We've asked ShamTech to shout a countdown across the office but he's not playing ball. However there is a distinct stirring in the Tech area.

Oh this is exciting! I love new tech stuff

ShamTech · 20/08/2014 15:15

We're nearly there everybody. Will post again shortly when it's live!

RebeccaMumsnet · 20/08/2014 15:17

JuniperTisane · 20/08/2014 15:21

Shock imagining shamtech with an 80s poodle perm now...

AtYourCervix · 20/08/2014 15:23

How exciting.

Do we get free booze to celebrate?

Freebirdy · 20/08/2014 15:25

Atyourcervix I'm going to be licking my phone to see if I can get any of that smashed bottle of champagne, give it a go...

AtYourCervix · 20/08/2014 15:27

I have 6 bottles of prosecco lined up in the fridge. Shall I crack one open?

Are we going to get the TARDIS emoticon back for this regeneration, then?

RustyBear · 20/08/2014 15:31

Or do we have to make do with KateSMumsnet's version?

I don't know if this is relevant, but I can't actually post on MN from my phone at the moment.

Have had to use tablet with non-mobile site.
