Thanks Tara and Art,
Trying to keep up with the technology here!  Your comments have helped.

We tracked some interesting stats on our website over the past year. Here is a 
comment from our stats expert:

A notable trend this year is that the mobile visits (smart phones) have 
increased rapidly from approximately 125 visits per day (to the OMAFRA site) in 
April 2010 to over 350 per day in March 2011, with Apple devices (iPad/iPod) 
being used for 74% of these visits (outnumbering Blackberry 10:1) and other 
systems also being popular.

I'm sure it's a similar scenario in your states.

Leslie,
In Penn State's case, the format is a feature of the new plone website we have 
for Fruit Times.  Little by little our whole system will be on plone, which 
will allow each commodity team to manage its own site.  When a new article is 
written, the system notifies each subscriber by email.
Hope that helps,

Hi Leslie,

ScaffoldsMD is just something I thought I'd try to provide for people who might 
prefer to read the newsletter on a smartphone without having to do a lot of 
zooming in and navigating around the regular pdf formatted version.  I asked a 
number of IT people how one might go about formatting such a document, and 
found surprisingly few who could offer me specific suggestions without things 
quickly getting very complex.  In the end, we figured out that it's easiest 
just to take an unformatted text version (which is how I write up each week's 
issue), and then format the document with small page margins (0.2") and in a 
large type font (we use Calibri 24 pt), and save it as a PDF.  This is what 
gets posted, and when you access it on a smartphone (regardless of the brand), 
it just opens in a full screen that you can scroll down as you read.  We're 
tinkering with including some graphics like photos and tables, but this can 
require more effort to format

I haven't gotten any feedback on this version yet, so I really couldn't tell 
you how many people might be using it.

I noticed Penn's Fruit Times is providing a smartphone version, but it looks 
like they may actually be doing it properly, with some customized formatting to 
include navigation and search functions.

Regards,
Art

Hi Art,
Thanks for your newsletter. Just wondering about the ScaffoldsMD - I know what 
it is, but wondered how you make the files - what program, what size, etc.  I 
see that Penn State is also providing mobile versions.

Any idea how many growers are reading yours on smartphones? Do you need to make 
different files for iPhones and Blackberries etc?

Just trying to keep up with the technology. Thanks, Art!

Ps. Thanks for your comments on apple-crop about the rumour of oil reducing 
yields.
