So you can see more than one application per monitor.
Filed under: Sure, I'll play along for a few more minutes before I go home
Admin
Why would you ever need to pay attention to more than two applications at a time?
Admin
WTDWTF on one, 9GAG or any other time killer on the other, and Visual Studio so that you can pretend you're working?
Admin
Separate tabs in the same browser...
Admin
12 apps at a time!
Admin
IDE, running application, dbgview?
Admin
I see zero.
Admin
And you're going to use all three at once?
Three monitors, then!
Admin
Like the tightwads that won't replace my POS workstation are gonna buy me a third monitor! The second one is essentially an unused spare from someone who retired.
Ironically or something, I actually DO have a third monitor behind me on my other desk, but I reserve that for when I have to work on other computers, since the 3rd jack on my video card is blocked by a VGA->DVI adapter, and I don't know if I can use the VGA port on the motherboard at the same time as the Geforce I brought in from home so I could use two monitors.
Admin
Good catch. "Ready for up to twelve apps."

If your objective function is, say, cost, then you definitely want to minimize.
Admin
Ahhh, I was reading "objective" as a developer
Admin
Aaaah! The Goggles! They do nothing!

Why is the site only using half the browser window, the middle? I think that makes the site more difficult to read.
Plus I have always been annoyed by the fact that the stores were not expanded on the main page, which always required me to load the page twice (once with the first few lines of each story and once with all the stories all readable). On mobile devices with a slow connection this was particularly annoying. And now it seems like I cannot even expand the main page any more and have to click on every story to read it.
Finally, at least on my Windows desktop work PC using IE9, clicking on the story title doesn't open the story (in fact it does nothing) and only clicking somewhere next to the title but above the story text opens the story. I assume that is not the intended behaviour?

You have to add the same thing into the round brackets. Seriously, this is all just waaaay too messed up. Well, or not use the link syntax at all and maybe get a surprise onebox.
