More Tools: There are some more folks chiming in on the "Tools of the Trade" thread:

Thanks for linking my post, but it's "Filip", not "Flip". ;-)

I knew that! But apparently my fingers didn't. Fixed now.

I appreciate the fact that the links on this site don't target a new window or tab by default, as many other sites do which really annoys me, but for some reason ctrl-click is no longer working for this site, it seems to ignore the ctrl key and I have to use the mouse to right-click and choose open link in new tab (ctrl-click is still be working for others sites). I'm pretty sure a few weeks ago it worked as it should [Firefox on Windows Vista]

Yes, they used to work right. Wordpress is now injecting their own link-hijacking Javascript that I can't get rid of. This is encouraging me to evaluate the alternatives for getting off of hosted Wordpress again. I chatted with their support about this, and it's by (bad) design.

Thanks for the link, Mike. As for blogs... you can always write your own :) Seriously though, it's good to know that Wordpress is doing dumb stuff with their hosted version. I host my wife's Wordpress blog on my VPS and I periodically consider moving her over to the hosted version to free up capacity. Sounds like I should avoid that.

I wonder whether Elad has ever worked on Facebook and/or Twitter related projects :-)
