COW iPhone

Sure, you can visit Creative COW using your iPhone or Blackberry to visit the COW. But the interface can be nearly untenable for smaller screen devices like the iPhone and Blackberry. So we're working on a new interface that will be live quite shortly and it is designed to allow you to visit the COW while on the road.

If you would like to help Abraham Chaffin beta test the new interface and be a part of this new addition to the COW, please write him at abraham@creativecow.net

We look forward to seeing you on the road. Moo!
