Yeah, I Thought that this was a waste of time until I started reading the "what you working on" post and I got tired of all click through every page working out what I had last read.
Good feature IMO

Brilliant idea
- yeah I'm really liking it, the only problem is how it interacts with noteskelpie
- as you don't get any alert fpor a new note, you would miss any beyond your dog ear. shame.kelpie
- Hence why Notes should just be a quick ref..Dancer
- but they offer such a great branching forum, it'd be a shame to limit their usefulness imokelpie
- i totally agree, but what can you do?paraselene
- hmmm. a + beside the thread in the list and a highlight round the added note? now its just getting complicated innitkelpie

Still doesn't explain why they are called 'dog-ears' . . .
- kelpie0
because its how you mark the page you are at in a book you are reading, turning over the corner.
ddddduuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhh

What is this 'book' you talk about?
- kelpie0
its like a website, but you don't have to plug it in and to go the next page you have to hold the corner of the current one and pull it right to the other side of the monitor

In the old days of Empire, part of Britain's industrial success stemmed from the lucrative production and trade of quality leather book marks. The best leather material for this, apparently, came from dogs ears. The very thin leather found there has a decent tensile strength, flexibility and supple qualities that prevented damage to old thick-weave writing parchments.
- hmmm, nothing at all to do with the tuned over corners looking like dogs ears...kelpie
