A Quick Question

I'm not sure about the "links capture" feature which I have installed... I really admired it when I first saw it (and coveted... mea culpa, mea culpa...) but it is beginning to get on my nerves, mostly because just scrolling past pictures causes a box to come up.

Does anyone else have any thoughts either way?

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks it's annoying. One other point, unless you have a magnifying glass, you can't read the pop-ups. So what good are they?

Scrolling past the links to other bloggers can be annoying - otherwise its good/useful.

what is link capture?

CC it's when the link is displayed in a little box when your cursor hovers over it...

...Ok, I think it has to go!

is it like that word press box that shows a preview of a link? I guess you ahd dissabled it before I noticed.

Agree with you taking it down. It's a fun gimmick - but a gimmick nevertheless. They are working on more user-side controls but I can't see the point of it. Looks good when you first see it, then it gets annoying.

They're tricksy and false.

I have just said a prayer of thanksgiving to Almighty God that he has enlightened the eyes of your mind as to how annoying these things are.

As you know, I thought you'd bewitched my PC. Please get rid of it.
