so i hear google now will give sites points based on how mobile friendly they are. i've designed my site to be responsive to different browser window sizes, but it's not mobile friendly as the mobile browsers still show the large full size layout.

what do i need to do to become mobile friendly?

Make sure you have a meta tag on each page specifying the 'viewport', like this:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

This is mainly to get around mobile devices that have "desktop" screen resolutions, resulting in the page rendering as if it viewed on a desktop because the actual screen resolution is so high.
