Some pretty interested stuff comes up on ebay
occasionally which I
might not have seen otherswise.
Exactamundo.
when folks just dump an ebay item number rather than a
full link, those
posts should die
Why? It's a tiny bit more work to use them (prepend the number with the
string "http://www.ebay.com/itm/", and away you go), so one can't just
click
and go, but are people really that unwilling to go to the slightest effort?

Also firefox has a nifty feature called "keyword search". If you
rightclick the searchfield on ebay you can choose:
"Add a Keyword for this search..."
That lets you add a bookmark with a keyword field, enter something short
like the letter "e".
Now you can type "e <item number>" in the address field, and it usually
gives you a hit (sometimes ebay fails... ebay is a mess).
It's really handy, a wikipedia search is no "w <subject>" for me.
