That's not bookmarks, that's a minimal quick-dial. What do you do for pages where you say "this is really good, I'll save this"?

I liked the presentation, didn't like the history-filling aspect. But what I don't like is the fact that I have to change the way I bookmark things, and I certainly don't like the fact that I've got to highlight text. Ca

Why? Because money is evil? Because True Hackers don't "sell out"? And so what if the 'wrong kind of people' start submitting designs. I bet the contest runners would be happier with an arsehole submitting a fantast

I'm intrigued as to how a society could be considered successful (or sustainable) with rising unemployment. Let's see. My axioms (and bear in mind these are written in half an hour) are: 1) People cannot ever be equal. 2) Things a

I imagine that the success rate varies according to the disease. If it was a flu vaccine then it would be laughed out at 50%, but for cancer I'm guessing 50% is a mindblowingly awesome success rate.

*edit; it was lower keying time not lower error rate on I-C, but the point remains. I-C is the only layout with more than one special attribute.
