    Jay,

    I know you are cutting edge and all that…always on the forefront…but I gotta tell you I HATE those snap things that keep popping up as my cursor is trying to drive to the spot I want to go. Not only do they tell me very little, they pause everything and cause delays…

    My cursor is going to get pulled over for drunken driving as it weaves around all the links trying to stay on the road.

    Maria, it has nothing to do with me - that’s a WordPress thing! I will see if I can do something about it!

    My site uses wordpress too (but not wordpress.com–that may be what you’re using) but I don’t have that plugin. I didn’t even know about it until other people started using it. It wouldn’t be so bad if it didn’t cause delays (I guess my broadband isn’t fast enough)–when I click on a link there’s this pause while it loads the snap thing BEFORE it takes me to the link. I don’t need to see a SNAP if I’ve already clicked on the link to go to the article…and since you tell me what is behind the link, I don’t actually ever need to see a snap of it…theoretically.

    Oh, I’ll learn to live with it if you can’t make it go away…grumble.
