Looks like the Great Firewall or something like it is preventing you from completely loading www.skritter.com because it is hosted on Google App Engine, which is periodically blocked. Try instead our mirror:

legacy.skritter.cn

This might also be caused by an internet filter, such as SafeEyes. If you have such a filter installed, try adding appspot.com to the list of allowed domains.

Sort Out Login for Devices!

Just tried Skritter on my Nokia N810 - can't get past the login - javascript error. But I can log into a lot of other sites with it.

Also, Apple are working v hard with Google on getting flash 10.1 onto the Google Nexus mobile phone.

I personally would never take out a Skritter subscription for working at a computer (its so unnatural). If I could use it on a palm-top device I would be extremely tempted.

But I would have to get past your login pages to be able to do that!

sorry - not Apple - Adobe!

It's probably a matter of personal preference. Using a graphics tablet (they are very cheap nowadays), I find it quite natural to use Skritter. Somewhat more natural than writing Chinese characters on the iPhone (which has a Chinese handwriting recognition).

I am able to login using an iphone 3gs safari, however it says as you would expect that you need flash :(

The login system is actually changed back here but we have a few more changes to make before we can upload the whole new system. Then it should work with your cell phones.

As for Flash, yeah we're hoping that Adobe will get it out soon for all those mobile devices so we can make it simple to study Skritter on your phone.

Nick tried out using his phone to study Skritter a while back with some VNC and he thought it worked pretty well! We actually originally planned on Skritter being mainly a cell phone program but we opted for the web site. We still have our eye on getting something for cell phone users out there, though!

Mobile device login should be working now with the latest update. Without the full Flash Player, Skritter won't run yet (until and unless your device gets Flash 10.1 this year), but you could post to the forums.
