This is why http://thebookpatch.com http://thebookpatch.com just launched: To specifically address the writing needs of (book) authors with tools and features dedicated to, for example, character development. (IE users only. Not my product, though I did some contract work for them.)

They just launched, in 2010, and it's IE only? Plus a link to a pdf of the DMCA in the bottom corner for no apparent reason. Wow, just wow.

  IE has the biggest installed base by far.

    Depends where you go. I have a (fairly) general interest site that gets about 100,000 unique visitors per month, and only about 55% of them use IE. Cutting out 45% of your potential market is quite a cost for a bit of lazy programming.

      What web site? Or, at least, how general-interest?

        Perhaps it's a German site?

  Sounds like it's an ActiveX control -- I thought you could only get away with that in South Korea.
