[Nfb-krafters-korner] New class option

Lindy, and others,

As a general rule, if there is a mobile version of a site, it will tend to
be more accessible. The reason for this is that mobile devices and phones
have smaller screens and navigating is not as easy as it is on a regular
computer. Hopefully, this will stay true, but with the advent of more touch
devices, it might not be as true. Screen space for mobile devices is key in
keeping the clutter down which helps us navigate them.
