A Game Played In the URL Bar

Kilrah_il writes "Whether you think it is useful or useless, you can't ignored the sheer cool geekiness of a game played entirely in the URL bar. From the article: '... While getting lost in a three dimensional virtual world amongst increasingly thoughtful plot and character development may be an adequate pastime for some, the only new title the gaming world should be talking about is URL Hunter, an experimental keyboard-character based game played entirely in your browser's URL bar.'"

    I use TinyURL, they have a 'Preview' feature that lets you see the actual URL before visiting the destination site - requires cookies.

    Go here - http://tinyurl.com/preview.php - and click the link that says "Click here to enable previews."

    Or just right-click on one of the URLs and choose "Forget about site".

    Yeah, Rule 11 of your own reference explicitly contradicts you. The Wikipedia article does also: "It is generally acceptable to use apostrophes to show plurals of single lower-case letters, such as be sure to dot your i's and cross your t's." The other references simply don't deal with the issue. I would say that you are clearly wrong here, and you should, as they say, stop digging. If you continue to disagree, please write a sentence using the plural forms of the following letters: a, i, and u. Do you see what hapened there? Congratulations, now not only do you know that you were wrong, now you know why.
