I think there is a good reason for that too. In the last 5 years, I've had to start wearing reading glasses while I work. And forget trying to see anything on a cell phone screen without them (and I have a big Droid X screen). As guys get a little older and have credit cards and disposable income it becomes harder to see on these damn things.

My thought is that mobile is really great for a sort of viral marketing. In other words, your buddy shows you a naked pic at a bar. But you aren't gonna buy a membership to that site on your cell phone when you're partying at a bar!

Nope, you're gonna go home and google that girl up on a real computer screen where you can see clearly and then buy a membership there.

I have enough trouble typing in a user/pass for my bank app...I can only imagine trying to do a join page on my cell phone. Talk about the potential for hidden x-sells! lol!
