Kudos to Slashdot

So I'm miserable that Links isn't working, and I drag Lynx out for some
low-end browsing.

Naturally, it is extremely difficult to use my Yahoo web-based E-mail
(though I can empty my Bulk E-mail folder (spam) rather easily).

However, I plug into http://slashdot.org/, and lo and behold, Slashdot
degrades gracefully into a pleasant Lynx browsing experience.  It isn't
as easy to use as in a graphical browser, but the top stories are
formatted in a way which makes them easy to read and easy to get to the
additional comments.  I'm not sure if I'd like moderating or
meta-moderating using the Lynx experience, but at least you can get to
the articles and read them without needing to eye-navigate GUI-only
formatting.
