A few days ago Firefox started one of the most annoying bugs I've come across: The address bar stopped working completely. No matter what I tried to do, this are the detailed symptoms:
Now this was really annoying me, and I've realized that quite a lot of people had the same problem so after a lot of research, I got to the solution.

Alex

}
Here is a very smart use of this technique, where a More >

How many times have you seen those great “If browsers were like… boats/women/cars/houses…” articles? I always wanted to make one of those, but I don’t know exactly which “technology” to use, so I’ll do one that basically says almost everything:
