devshed forums lite.
I Was just thinking that it might be nice to provide a lite version of the forums. One with less markup and smaller pages. I'm sure those who are on dialup would appricate being able to use a lite version of the forums.
I know it would probably be a bit of work to create a lite template, but I think it would be worth the effort to the users.

It would be great for PDA's as well, but there's also the loss in ad-revenue to consider, but the additional impressions could drive up the cost of advertising per square inch, so it could all work out
PDA users would be a ready made demographic, so the advertising could be specifically targetted, the same is also true of dial up users. Specific target audience, more $$$ Would require log investigation to see if it's bang for buck worthy --Ax --Ax

It would be quite useful, I agree. However maybe it is easier just to add a hack to the archives so that it will allow you to post and see little more info on there...

Perhaps the Lite version (or DevPortable?) could be a pay-for service for those who want lots of access with minimal footprint. Just a thought...

Hmm I'm not sure what use that would be charging, as with a little ad-blocking and CSS control I could probably make a nice slim down version in my browser anyway...

Set posts per page to 10, disable avatars, signatures, and extra images, and only show threads from the past day or so....
That should come pretty close to a "lite" version....
