“There is nothing wrong with your monitor. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper. We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical. We can roll the image, make it flutter. We can change the focus to a soft blur or sharpen it to crystal clarity. For this browsing session, sit quietly and we will control all that you see and hear. We repeat: there is nothing wrong with your monitor. You are about to participate in a great adventure. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to… the newly designed jkOnTheRun.” — homage to The Outer Limts, 1963.
After many long hours of design, feedback, and testing, we’ve got a fresh new coat of paint! For the first time since our acquistion, I believe that jkOnTheRun is now fully integrated with the great GigaOM Network of sites. And it’s not just some visuals that have changed. We were late to the tagging game, so you’ll now see posts with relevant Tags to help you find information faster. Plus, we’re in full control of what Topics are hot, so you’ll see those Topics change as fast as the news does. We’re also making it easier for you sift though content to get at what you want — each post will have a brief excerpt to help you decide if the post is worth further reading. And there’s easier methods to “get social” with jkOnTheRun as well.
Now change of any kind is a tough nut to crack — there’s simply no way to make everyone happy. But we’ve taken your feedback and also evaluated the changes as if we were readers of the site ourselves. We think the new changes add value for the audience and we hope you do as well. Of course, our focus won’t ever change — James and I are devoted to bringing you news, views and reviews that you can use in your mobile lifestyle. Enjoy!
