h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Oh, yeah, cookies! How 'bout it, Jim? Safe, or too far?

Also, is it possible to have that line of javascript in the s of DNA pages? No, never mind, then multiple windows would confuse the browser. Drat. Any other ideas?

-Spike A.

Cookies? Not really. There's an upper limit on cookies, and the BBC sets quite a few different ones.

I'm sure there's better ways of handling it...

Are you, or are you not, in England? And if you are, then why are you at work so late? *Go home* Jim!

I *am* home. Just finished watching Buffy and Angel, and thought I'd play around with Opera.

I'll be going to bed soon, though.

Good.


Then I'll rephrase it:
Why are you still *at work* at 1 am?

This is *working*?

How come I don't get paid for it, then?

*sigh*
I would rather be paid to do what you do than what I do.


(You just answered a technical question! )

Which "Buffy"? I just watched Series 6 Ep. 13, "Dead Things"... Quite amusing, but I bet it won't make it to the BBC uncut...

'All The Way' - Season 6 episode 6.

And as for the BBC cutting it (or Sky for that matter) I just have to wait for the DVDs. (Although I haven't bought S3 on DVD yet, because I'm waiting for WH Smith to do another 'buy one get one half price' deal to get them cheap).

Hey, why not join the Opery User's Group?

Hey, why not join the Opera User's Group?

Jim, make sure you have a good sound system set up for the next one - "Once More, With Feeling" is the best of the series so far...

I'm looking forward to it.

They got... the mustard...out!

This tool is all very nice and that, indeed I have it on my desktop at work all the time. But what I'm worried about is this: Won't it help turn h2g2 into more of a chatroom rather than a collaborative guide? I mean, it's taking the focus away from the sharing of information to chatting to other people (which I realise is also a sharing of a kind). Which is all very well, but I though h2g2 wasn't about that.I know since the popupconversation tool was launched my evolution entry has gone untouched.

For a quick reminder of DNA's vision for the site see A550955.

I feel a little awkward saying all this so be kind in your responses. I don't make a habit of criticising h2g2, mainly because I love this site so much.

Thanks,

Ste

A good and valid point, but, on the contrary, I feel that this gadget will speed up actual Guide work as much as it will pure community fun. I think it already has.

-Spike A.

I agree on the community-fun front totally. Why will it speed up the Guide front though?

Ste

I think it helps speed PR along.

-Spike A.

Hm, I can see your point. Not convinced thought
