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

Yoz, any news on deletion of user pages, only I've created a large number by accident. Maybe I should submit the lot of them and think of something to put in them in 6 weeks or so !

Cheeky.

The good news is that deletion of user pages is *definitely* coming, along with a load of other much-requested features. Bad news is that it's still a couple of weeks away.
I suggest you let your creativity run wild and see what you can put in them!

So where [and when] did the cute little button come from that opens the forum frame in it's own little [or big, depending] window.

And, more importantly, how can we keep up with all these wonderful improvements? Mainly the ones that are not so obvious. Is there a central place where they are listed? Like a place where all the smiley thingies and the fishy thingie could be located for easy access.

If there is a place like that I've forgotten where it is,, or there are several places, or you keep moving it, or all of the above.

[showing skill by making smiley thingy-forgot how to do fishy and cant find it]

Eh? Which button's that? We know of no such button. Incidentally, which browser are you using?

A "New Features" page is something we've been asked for several times, so we're probably going to do it. However, it probably won't appear for another month (we've got enough things to do before then!)

er...ah...the button that is right...there?

...ah...it WAS right there a couple of days ago

at least I THOUGHT it was

This could be confusing

AHA, just like real life!

Anyway, the button I saw/hallucinated/imagined/made up/ was a little round dot of the same color and appearance as the 'up' and 'down' buttons that appeared instead of the 'up' button [I think] in the forums. I clicked on it a couple of times in different places and it opened the forum frame in a new window.

You DID do it, didn't you????? I'm not imagining this?????

NOOOO, NONONONONO...not again. I've been taking my medication and everything....

Oh, I almost forgot...Netscape 4.6 Macintosh

I think you dropped by during a testing of a new toy.. they do that kind of thing to test us!

AHA!

I knew it!

They are after me -- again....

You know, just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you...

More and more like real life all the time. Or, as Alice put it so well; 'curiouser and curiouser'.

This is that kind of site.......

Dear BluDragon

The Ministry would just like ot inform you that you are indeed being watched, we are bugging your fridge, the cat that's always hanging around your front door is a spy, and yes, that van outside your house does belong to us.

Don't turn around, whatever you do...

Kind Regards

I knew it, I knew it...

it all makes sense now; the strange noises on my phone, the familiar faces in the crowd, that hamster in the ice cream van following slowly at a distance when I walk the dog...

Old chinese proverb say: "He who watches hamster, misses what is on end of leash."

We are closer than you can possibly imagine.

I was about to point out the irony of having a New Features page down the list of requested new features... but I've just realized it makes perfect sense.

I'll get my coat.

h2g2 coat rack...
