POPS6 Reasons Why Mozilla Firefox Is Safe Compared To Internet Explorer
While statistics put Internet Explorer clearly ahead as the most widely used web browser, it’s clear to many people that it is not due to the excellent programming. the practice of ‘bundling’ the infamous browser with the every copy of the operating system represents the primary reason behind its crushing dominance. ~~~ 4.

POPSUltracool stars take 'wild rides' around, outside the Milky Way Ultracool subdwarfs were first recognized as a unique class of stars in 2003, and are distinguished by their low temperatures ("ultracool") and low concentrations of elements other than hydrogen and helium ("subdwarf"). They sit at the bottom end of the size range for stars, and some are so small that they are closer to the planet-like objects called brown dwarfs. Only a few dozen ultracool subdwarfs are known today, as they are both very faint - up to 10,000 times fainter than the Sun - and extremely rare.

It is in process so there are broken links, design flaws and incomplete pages. Anyway, I wanted to show how well clipmarks can integrate.

POPSWord wrap bookmarklet for Firefox I keep losing this superb bookmarklet, but now it's clipped for eternity! If you've never used bookmarklets in Firefox before, copy the code above into a new bookmark, and save it to some place handy like the toolbar. Then the next time you come across a page whose text extends off the right side ( like this one ), just click the bookmarklet, and voilà ...it's reformatted on the fly. No more sidescrolling. (I tried to create a one-click install link in the comments but I couldn't get around the bullet-proof defenses of coder EricW. Curses! :) )
