Last night, we rolled out a brand new, baked-from-scratch Phish.net mobile site. You can access the Phish.net mobile at m.phish.net.

Why did we upgrade our mobile site?

1. It's built for any modern mobile device, not just iPhones.
2. It supports deep linking and permalinking.
3. We hope to implement better integration with LivePhish.
4. It supports deployment of additional content and is compatible with our new API.
5. The mobile forum has been updated to use our API, so it will replace our mobile forum site effectively pretty much immediately.
6. The code is simpler and more lightweight.

We're working with our host to allocate the appropriate resources and better optimize our equipment to scale for peak demand. We take our job as the core Phish data warehouse seriously, and we want you to know that your data is safe and we hope to continue to grow and cement ourselves as the most officialunofficial place for Phish information.
