Although it is pretty basic, it can be quite handy. The best way to browse a website is using the mobile version of it.  Many websites  have versions that are especially formatted for mobile access. They will usually have m. or mobile. in the URL

The easiest way to check if a website has a mobile version is to Google it.  For example, if you Google “mobile Los Angeles Times” you will see

mobile.latimes.com/

If you google “mobile Answers website” you wil get

www.mobile-answers.com/

And so on
