Are you using Firefox? Does the post have a long URL in the signature? Does the post have a string in the title or body that has no spaces in it like "AK,AL,AR,GA,MI,NE...".

It's a bug. I don't know of a way to get around it other than resizing the Firefox window, temporarily switching to IE, or pestering the specific user to change something....

Subscribing to threads

Posted 11-19-2008 at 06:57:57 AM by pennywatcher

Putting a link in your signature

Did you know that you can put a link in your signature that looks like this:

My User Profile

rather than this:

Type the phrase in your signature then highlight it. Click on the icon that looks like a globe with a couple links of chain in front of it. A window will pop up asking for the URL. Type in the URL, and be sure to include the http:// at the beginning.

Fancy bookmarks

Posted 11-05-2008 at 08:24:21 AM by pennywatcher

Instead of using the bookmarks/favorites in IE and/or Firefox, I built a little launchpad file. A picture and details are here:

One feature I really like is that I can take the launchpad file to other computers and have all my coupon links readily available. I don't have to worry about exporting/importing bookmarks between browsers.

I also like being able to put things in a table rather...

custom Google maps

Posted 11-05-2008 at 08:19:12 AM by pennywatcher

Did you know that you can make custom Google maps?

I built one for the CVS stores near me, one for Walgreens, etc. I can overlay whichever ones I want. It helps when I'm doing an unusual errands run. Say I have to go to Target, Walgreens, the bank, and the Post Office. I can overlay those four maps and choose stores and plan a route. ("Oh, yeah, I forgot there was a bank over...
