A frequently used dictionary or reference book has a dog-eared, well-thumbed appearance and falls open naturally on often-used pages.
I'd like this to happen to word-processor documents too - the scroll-bar should 'stick' slightly at parts of the document you frequently visit.

Acrobat is a bad idea poorly executed anyway...Why make it even MORE annoying? |

Like bookmarks, yes - but automated. |

And the most used pages should be easily identifiable by the virtual coffee stains |

Well, dude, peter. I think you could turn it off. This would
be great for etexts. (I often read long texts like plays
online and wish they would do this . . .) |

...and how would you convert the concept of sticky pages in a well-used xxx mag to an xxx website? |

They already do that, when you try to close/let go, they stick to your fingers/reopen your browser. |

I am happy to re-bun this idea (following the crash of 1994). A positive effect of this idea is that, when passing through 100 occurrences of the same search word in a document to find the one you want, you could use the grease stains/yellowing of the page around the commonly looked-up entry to more quickly tell whether you are at the right one. |

I'd like it, sometimes. But, sometimes, I'd definatley want to shut it off. It should be a toggle switch in the word processing application, or I would always have it disabled. [+] |
