How many people on eGO have iPhones? I do and I think it would be beneficial if one of us programmers from eGO who knows the unix language to try and create such an app. Please give me some input on what you guys think about it because it can sometimes be annoying accessing the forum when on the go. And with eGO members who keep up with the latest and greatest technology I wouldn't doubt that most of our members do have iPhone's, G1's or blackberries so this could prove to be very beneficial to us. Please let me know with a response and also let me know if you know the C and Unix languages so that maybe we can try to put a little project together.

Thanks and have a Happy Thanksgiving!

yeah i have an iphone too and think that EdgeGamers should have EdgeGamers Mobile
 
I have an iPod Touch, and I think this would be a fabulous idea.

Yea, a mobile version of the website would be better than an app. (i.e. m.edgegamers.org.)

Don't need to code an app... a mobile version of the website should be enough. Maybe a skin for vBulletin optimized for mobile devices?

it would be pretty interesting to have a mobile version for the site
well if you guys ever decide to go through with this idea, you can count me in, I can help with the server side coding (but not if you're making an app) I am proficient with PHP/MySQL and HTML :)
 
I'd like this idea a lot but I bet all of the brains of the website (Dominion, Kendle, etc) are going to get one large headache from this thread. :/
 
Yeah, a mobile version of the site would be neat; trying to emulate it with RSS feeds is a bit of a pain :D

I have heard of these magical iPhone apps. I'm a UNIX programmer, I know a bit of C (but not Objective C, which is what Apple loves), and plenty of PHP and Python. I was told that I could make an "iPhone app" and make millions...

...but nobody ever knows exactly WHAT they want as an app. They just know that "apps are neat" :D

Also, I've got a Windows Mobile Moto Q that I love, and woudn't trade it for all the shiny apple hardware in the world... so iPhone apps are worthless for me :D

However, a mobile version of this site (nix the menus, just the threads) would be usable on all mobile technologies with internet connections.
 
Yeah nice idea!!! :)
My HTC Touch go to be really happy if the webiste is optimized for mobile.
I know it's a lot of job for the administration.. but we hope ;)
 
Not an app. But as everybody said a mobile version of the website. That would always keep us informed :)
 
ive got an iphone and either would do nicely. my work blocks eGO and so i sneak peaks at the website with my phone, so that would be awesome :)
 
I has an Ipod Touch 2nd Gen 32 GB :D

And my brother in college has Iphone.... (doesnt work in korea)

I'd love to get an app for it :D
 
Ya both would be a good idea like all of you said. The app would just be better for people with iPod touch's and iPhones because we could make the app so we can get pm's easier and the forums will look better. But all you HTML programmers we need you to make this happen. I'm pretty sure it won't be hard to make it mobile. Well I thank everyone for your input. And I would really like to hear from a division leader about this idea.

I'd love to have an iPhone optimized version of the forums, not sure what else would really be worth the effort. <3 my iPhone 3G
