And if your reading a page with links you dont want to click, lets say to a picture of a man stretching his balloon knot open, then they'll be cached for you and swallow up more and more system resources. nice!
The next time I read someone in all seriousness using the term "blazingly fast" the baby seal gets it.
Chimera's great, I use it, but it has zero speed advantage over OmniWeb. Nil. Goosegg. And in my opinion, OmniWeb looks better.
Perhaps that's good, although I'd like to see an option where you can choose to apply the feature to all links leading to HTML pages.
What would be great is if it could recognise if a page is of thumbnail images, and then automatically download the linked images. It would make browsing porn much quicker.

First thing I noticed.
Score:4 for *that*? I mean, I thought it was kind of cute or I wouldn't have written it, but...
Moderation on Slashdot is a little whacky.
Oh, what really gets my goat is when I post to some post saying "this post deserves to be modded up", and some whimsical moderator mods the "mod up" post up *instead of the parent*. I remember getting a Score:4 saying that the parent post (Score:1) should be modded up.

i am mystified as to how you arrived at the number "three."

Pico - one word
GUI - not really a word, but not two either. Either it's one word or three.
it is, however, one of the sweeter OSS projects that i've seen in a while
it was causing major problems (ie: crashes)
