online advertising will be disrupted in a big way this year, certain technologies are quietly up 1000% in the last year, growing exponentially

advertisers are going to have to find new ways to advertise online to support their sites.

interesting times for tech advertising, this is one of the reasons self hosted videos are making a comeback.

Thread % rating number which appeared recently is less user friendly than say a red-green bar (e.g. pornhub :oops: ). Alternatively, it can be a line of thumbs up, from 1 to 10, for example, 32% would mean 3 thumbs up.

Please Toby, tell your programmer to add some margin between the buttons and the text. And make all buttons the same size (very easy by adjusting the padding) :wink:

Shouldn't there be a link to 'My Bookmarks' under 'Quick links' ??? That would be great. Currently I'm not seeing an easy way to view my bookmarks - am I missing something?

In the User Control Panel, where you manage your complete profile, you will find all of this.

Click on your user name on top right and then User Control Panel and you will see all your tools.
Pretty easy to me ;-)
