    You know for how many people are one here don't you guys thing that someone could make Tacoma world a app for the smart phones. And not jus for a particular service to. Needs to be for anybody....version...AT&T....tmobile....sprint....and all the above. Some should mak it so you could view the threads and post and make it easy enough for even a chimp to use. Should also make it with notifications sent to your phone so that you know when someone commented and you could be kept updated for a consistent conversation. What do you guys think. If anyone knows someone in that kind of industry could you jus throw that out there at them. Ohh and for sure to make that app a hit....needs to be free.

    I am working on this problem... Trying to juggle it among work, school, running my own business, and everything else. I unfortunately will not be able to offer it for free though. I personally think that tapatalk is shit compared to even the mobile skin except that it allows you to quote and edit posts.

    I think that translates out to

    "I wouldnt mind paying for an application. I choose not to use the mobile skin when I go on TW on my phone, so that I see it the same way I do on my computer. However, I dislike how TW opens multiple pages when I do things, like look at my gallery"

    That help? ^^^^^

    I just started using tapatalk and like it, but it is still limited. And something I noticed today is there's no access to my pictures.

    EDIT: D'oh, I'm slow.

    I think there should be an app that translates all of his posts into comprehensible English.
