Google Fade In Fail

warning: rant ahead
people who don't use Google.com may safely skip this post!



Dear Google, don't add annoying 'features'!

I thought this 'test' of the fade-in would be over by now.

I'm tired of my 'quick' Google window, being delayed because of an unwelcome pause due to a silly fade-in. What're you thinking, Google.com, to make your homepage -less- efficient?!?


* Thankfully this guy shows some ways to circumvent G's fade-in (link in new window).

But why should these work-arounds even be necessary?


Hey Google! Phase-out the fade-in!!

Blogger's Lament

Every once in a while my blog annoys me.

So I go here to fix the code:
Blogger 'How Do I'
Tips For Website
Blogger main Help topics
Or, when in doubt, Google it: Link: Google

Blog help via video on YouTube:[video]

p.s. easy search for blogspot blogs:

I like handy things

Still road-testing my first ever blog.

And I might use this post to add handy links
since I'm not ready to add yet another sidebar.

Opens a link to Wikipedia in new window:
Wikipedia

A link to Google, also opens in new window:
Google

'Top Chef' (Bravo show, starts March 08) opens in new window:
'Top Chef' forum



eta:

Good News: I have found out how to do code to open my links as new tabs,(not new windows) which conserves your PC's memory while browsing.
Bad News:
This code is new-ish, so some browsers will send back an 'error' on use if I incorporate it.

So for now, *right-click* any links you want to open in a new -tab-.
