A few times I have visited the site on a mobile device and noticed the page doesn't display very well. It's difficult to say how many mobile users visit without seeing their stats. Does anyone else think the site should have a responsive design to suit people browsing from mobile devices?

  A new site is being developed right now (im developing it), and another user (not sure what their username is) is creating a mobile app for it. Looking to launch sometime next month if all goes well, so stay tuned!

  I'm really excited to see what it looks like behind the scenes and how it will be to work with.

  I'm also developing an online news website and I'm looking for more ways to contribute to LTB. Is there something I can help with?

  Whoah, you're building a custom CMS? Gutsy.

  One thing that I dislike on the existing letstalkbitcoin.Com site is the way it sorts it's latest posts on its index page. Often a newly released episode of a show is stuffed 3-4 placements below older posts, as if the post dates are being tweaked to prioritize certain content over others. I pick up the latest release via the rest feed, then need to hunt for the actual post on the website. Hunts can be fun, but I'm still confused how the index sorting is not perfectly predictable?

  I agree, wasn't ideal but at the time we were working under a lot of pressure to get it out and compromises were made :)  I have been very happy with the site given what went into it, and very much appreciate the work that did.

  It is difficult with the current layout to scroll for older posts. Perhaps an index may help?
