There ought to be...
...keyboard shortcuts for moving the cursor to the top or bottom of the screen, when you're in a program like a word processor or text editor. You might think that the page up and page down keys do this, but they scroll the screen up or down when they move the cursor, whereas I want something that keeps the screen the same and just moves the cursor. I think I'd often find this feature useful.
Since, in Windows at least, CTRL + UP ARROW (or DOWN ARROW) are already used, perhaps CTRL + < could be used for 'move cursor to top of page' and CTRL + > for 'move cursor to bottom of page'. I'm also wondering, is there any program or operating system that already has this feature?
but when
this happens..
Mouse behaving badly Andy Johnson - 151st post - 24 Feb 2004 21:32
My mouse has recently been acting very strangely. It now seems to have a mind of it's own, always wanting to hide in the lower left or upper right corners of the screen. This doesn't happen regularly, although more frequently when pc has warmed up (after 1-2 hours).

In Google We Trust
Perseus estimates that 4.12 million blogs have been created on these services: Blog-City, BlogSpot, Diaryland, LiveJournal, Pitas, TypePad, Weblogger and Xanga. Recently, I visited Google's Web Directory where it states that the Google directory contains over 1.5 million URLs. But the Perseus survey estimates there are 4.12 million hosted blogs. Does Google not know everything, or are there a lot less blogs than estimated?
First, blogs are still being created much faster than they are being abandoned
