I have to seriously disagree with the 1st point.

Give me a usable website over one that "meets my expectations", dammit! As much as I like the desktop version of let's say www.theverge.com, I can honestly say it wouldn't work on a mobile at all. It would be too cluttered, and the links too small to tap.

On a side note, is there a mobile version of Hacker News out there?
