Hah! I notice you don't have to list a new word to be able to comment on it.
Anyway, I find the 'recently viewed' list around 0% of interest compared with our old habits of 'recently listed' followed by a count. Is it coming to Zeitgeist, john?

Also, I notice that having recently viewed recently viewed Recently viewed isn't showing that I recently viewed recently viewed.

Blimey! They've gone. 5 minutes, and ... have they dropped off the end already? Interest level plummets to 0.4%.

Holy wordspeed! 'Etruscan' dropped right off the end from top position in around 4 minutes. Seems to be a pointless listing to me or am I missing something wordnikwonderful?

I wonder how far down the dropped off end of the Recently viewed list it went in that time. Could be miles. Curiosity level 100%.

Nothing on telly tonight, gangerh? ;-)
I also second 'rh's seventh-previous comment, to whit, "I find the 'recently viewed' list around 0% of interest compared with our old habits of 'recently listed' followed by a count." The 'recently listed' often alerted me to new lists, sparked off new ideas and gave me an idea of who was 'active' on the site.

I barely noticed that list. I guess it can be considered a contingency feature (as opposed to random). I'm with you.

Don't know, 'by. I'm off to the jazz club tonight. Anyway I haven't recently viewed any tv. My fibre optic cable is faulty and the upstream signal isn't good enough for connecting to the internet. A lead time of around 4 weeks led to me solving the problem by hijacking the tv feed. Given the choice between tv or web, I choose web. Besides for most tv output, I'd rather watch the backs of my eyelids. (Apparently, there are some unknown celebs congregating in a jungle over your way).

Am I correct in thinking word pages with spaces or other punctuation, and longer words, don't appear on recently viewed?
I'd taken to using it as an alternative to random searches, but if many entries aren't going to appear there, I may just have to stick with random searching, for all its flaws.
