How Does Your Website Display?

Hey Everyone,
So I asked the question: How does your website display? Do you know how it looks on a tablet? A Kindle Fire tablet? or maybe a Samsung Galaxy S2? Or how about a television screen...yup...there are folks who may look at your website from their tv.
Creepy science fiction time I know...
I see a lot of folks here at WA wanting to know what their website looks like on different types of devices. I've heard folks saying things like:
"Make your screen really small" and that will show you how your site displays on a small cell phone for example
And I've also heard that folks who don't have a tablet of their own, borrow their friends tablets to have a look at how their websites display...I know, I could hardly believe it myself.
Why?
Because there is another way...
An easier way...
The hell you say Thischick!
No really it's for real...honest and for true :)
