Sweet, I like the Android functionality.

I'm using the mobile skin now! I'm on the laptop, but still, its cool

Question RE: facebook connectivity. Are you getting anything out of it from facebook, or are you just aiding them in building data profiles of our members? Because I'd remove that functionality if they aren't doing anything for you. Just a thought.

I'm getting ease of creating new accounts and ease of sharing links on facebook.

If you're an existing C&G user and you don't link to your Facebook account manually, they get nothing from us.

It looks like 'View New Content' (VNC) is working somewhat better.

However, I'm having an odd glitch. Using 3.6.9 Firefox, occasionally, when I hit the back button, its going back twice. I know is sounds like my setup, but I'm not convinced, as this is not happening with other sites... or here before the upgrade... and my Firefox setup has been pretty stable. Usually, I can then just hit the forward button to put me back at VNC. But sometimes, that intermediate stop disappears. Example:

Hit VNC.

Read thread A

Hit back button... goes to VNC page correctly.

Read thread B

Hit back button... go to some article I read last week from my CnG browsing history. :confused0071:

Hit forward button... back at VNC page.

Read thread C

Hit back button... back at that same article I read last week again.

Hit forward button... back in thread C. :confused0071:

Hit 'VNC' and continue reading threads D and onward.

I guess this is happening about 2 times a day. Very strange.

If you're a Facebook user, you can now also "like" a thread!!

This will help me get out the good news of C and G to people I know on facebook...
