This is the WTF (What the F*) of the day

I never imagined that I could save ink in such a user-friendly way and have
fun manipulating margins in ways I never dreamed of...
Thanks for the laugh, David.

"Microsoft Firefox 2007 automatically shrinks text to abysmally small sizes,
so all webpage content can fit onto a single apostrophe on your final
printed page. This saves ink.

additional UXD folks. I am curious about your ideas and feelings about a
taboo subject. Does anyone feel like they have experience or their mind
around how to best add ³junior² UXD folks to an existing UCD team. Typical
or expected salary (Southeast US: Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill, NC),
delineation of tasks, etc. Having a hard time finding relevant info/data to
support hiring the right folks.
