Subject: Scroll up & down
Does anybody know why we have to "scroll down" when opening a blog
instead of scrolling up?

Why are posts added to the TOP instead of the BOTTOM?

Remember how a real bookmark helps us keep our place in a book we are
reading?

Why can't I place a "real bookmark" on my blog that would tell my
browser:

"Go the the LAST line of the last post on my blog and fill my monitor
screen form the BOTTOM up with my last five posts."

Isn't that the way you (used to) work with your old paper diary and
have the option of starting a new post?

Or "Go the FISRT line of the last post on my blog and fill my monitor
screen form the TOP down with my last post and place the other four
last posts ABOVE."

I guess that's what people did when they wanted to take a quick look
at where they left out, the last time they wrote something.

Did a lot people, who write from left to right, ever started filling a
diary, notebook or whatever form the last page UP, so that the last
thing they wrote would always be on TOP?

On every computer that I have used with a scroll bar it goes both UP
and DOWN. How about you?

Please pass this message to the people at Microsoft and others who
keep designing new versions of Office suites where saved documents
always open on the first line of the first page, when what you want to
do is continue where you left out, at the bottom of page 20.

 I have a work around for that when I make my blogs

 I don't put posts in separate pages (see settings). Instead I republish the posts in the order I want or when I create them I put the new post at the end so it reads like a book as you wish.

It's for the convenience of the readers. You're just used to the traditional
book-manner of first things first. Your readers are moving across the net at
high-speed. If your post is interesting enough to hold them, it's likely
they'll find their way to your beginning. A couple of bloggers have keyed
the introduction in on a link that says something like, "if you're new to
this site, click here." If your intro is needed, do that.

(CONTENT appear at the top of every pages of the blog, including the
main page and the individual post pages and the archives.
http://enviromansays.blogspot.com/

Anyone can bookmark a location on any website (and leave comments if
necessary) using Trailfire.

Its kind of like Digg or Delicious but it leaves a sticky note like a
post it on a specific place in the website.

Site

It can be very useful and you can syndicate bookmarks and sticky notes
too!

thanks,

Thank you all so much.

There were so many people trying to help and making nice suggestions
