Hi, I've tweaked the columns some, however not wider.
Why this column width you ask? The columns are spaced to take nice advantage of phone widths (320px). So the same design of column content can be reused for various sized viewports. As anyone who has done any big 'responsive' website projects knows this saves a lot of work. No need to do 3-5 extra designs for each module, and none of the 3-5 css for all the different viewports (unless you want to put in the extra work!). Design everything for the 300px column (with 20px gutters), and it should scale to all the view ports. Anyone tried it on a 4000 or 8000 pixel wide screen? The website looks pretty good at that resolution. This is useful in a conference situation, where you can have a bunch of screens or projectors stitched together then you can fit much of the website in a really wide view. That's the reasoning behind it anyway. cu. ps. The HiFi view currently NOT responsive to network speed. It only makes sense on fast networks (wired, WiFi or quality 3g/4g networks). But this is what the LoFi design is for. Luckily the LoFi version can reuse the html generation code the HiFi uses. Since the html generation code is all done via jQuery plugins on the server, and not via some template language, on demand loading could also be implemented - but I think a LoFi basic html view will be better for that use case.
