"Responsive" Hosted Galleries. Who Cares?

Useless · 2014-04-18, 08:58 PM

I receive sponsor emails about their new responsive galleries that work seamlessly on different devices. I have great difficulty caring about such things. Maybe it's because even when viewing the interwebs on my antique cell phone, everything looks fine. It seems gimmicky to me, but I don't spend much time surfing on anything other than a full-size computer.

Also, PimpRoll pushes a lot a lot of mobile hosted galleries that are otherwise useless. How many happy pervs are purchasing memberships on their phones? That has always seemed so desperate to me. All I can imagine is someone jerking off in a bathroom stall at work, hoping their 8 million dollar iPhone doesn't slip into the toilet.

I am confessing my ignorance here. I don't understand the mobile market at all. Responsive galleries don't mean anything to me because my sites that I'd be linking from aren't responsive. So, why bother? Should a dinosaur like me spend some time working on this new-fangled hoopla?
