    same with middle click scroll, have a transparent gray line where the top of the page was when middle click scroll was clicked!

  2. proposals on Incorporating Machine Learning into Firefox 2.0? · · Score: 1
    maybe incorporate some 'advanced' downloading into firefox. Although the current one can be resumed, it would be good if there was an advanced option, when enabled then we get the choice of how many parts the file is split into, maybe a 'real' download interface, some extra nifty features such as an icon which moniters downloads (with the download manager in the system tray, not stuck in the taskbar. Wouldn't mind databaseing.

    In the download manager you could implement a graph with the speeds. Of course, most will say this is a resource hog, but if the feature to flip the download manager back to basic mode is avaliable, sure i think people will love it :)

    Oh yeh and can u have a sidebar type plug in that shows whos on icq/msn/or even an irc type thingy-majig.

    Yay we can go outside again! Hmm, I don't like the look of those teenagers! *goes back inside* But on a serious note.. isn't this just a bit derogatory towards older people, it's treating them like animals. Has there been an outbreak of lost elderly people recently?

  4. Well.. on Americans Read Fewer Books · · Score: 1

    I don't wanna flame or anything (although i'm sure some American blind-faith patriots will disagree), but notice this is an american study (yes... i can read). Last i heard, around 40% (?) of all Americans havn't read a book before. over 50% believe in UFO's (the Alien kind). So whats this about society advancing... D'Oh ?

    so does this mean mars could have pre-desolate factors, like oil, water etc. underneath the surface? because if it has oil, tell G. bush Jr. and we'll be invadi.. exploring mars in no time! :)

  7. Re:Public authoring good, but misuse concerns loom on Net Sticky Notes All Over London · · Score: 0

    Good idea, have moderators give 'karma' points to the users. So if its' an informative note, then they get +5, informative. If they are trolling the streets then.. well you get the rest. hehe :)
