(You do remember the Davidson forum having a really annoying black and green twitter panel, but the adblocker dealt with that, too.) [But probably good on google, in a way, and congrats on being a confirmed geek :-) It was Facebook telling me to lose a stone in 3 days every time I went there that led me to install an adblocker finally - before that I found my in-brain filtering mechanisms worked well enough on their own.] Last edited by ColinsMum; 01/15/12 01:32 AM.
