Seems there's nothing that can't be patented these days including "page up"... but just in case somebody later on tries to make this minor suggestion their own private property (like so many other things)...

(email to news organization/publisher Sept 4, 2008)

"I didn't remember this queue notice or I wouldn't have asked re the delay in publishing my recent articles. The delay does mean that I will tend to publish somewhat time-sensitive articles (ie anything based on recent studies) elsewhere, however.

But I do have a suggestion - I apologize, since it's a bit rude to suggest work others might do, particularly programming, still...

Someday, maybe go to a dynamic two-tier system, as is found on other news sites, where people can click for more articles from a given day, and make it so that articles are tracked so that the most popular "hidden" articles are swapped with less-clicked articles on the front page, as the day goes on and stats accumulate. Come to think of it, for all I know, this last might be a patentable suggestion. I'll publish it on my blog.

Thanks for listening to what might be an impertinence....
