iPad to Improve your Station Web Site

Something Jerry Del Colliano wrote makes sense: Optimize your station website for the iPad.

Only a small percentage of visitors to your site will use iPads. But in making the experience more enjoyable for them, you’ll make design and content improvements for everybody.

I believe that this makes you think about how people on a powerful mobile device might best enjoy and benefit from your site. Because the screen is a bit smaller than the average laptop, it should also encourage you to look at how to remove clutter.

Is it practical to ask your web design people: Think about how our site would be done if it were to look fantastic on an iPad. Can you show us a mock-up?

Another good question for the people who work with you to stream audio: What would it take to make the audio streaming iPad-compatible?
