Are Links that Open in New Windows the Great Satan?

Nate Eagle on the PBS Design blog:

There’s nothing terribly difficult about hitting cmd+click for me: I’ve got two able arms with able fingers attached to the hands that join them, but Twitter’s completely right that I always want its links to open in new windows and that I appreciate not having to think about it. Twitter’s my base, man: I want to have my place saved while your picture of your adorable bull-dog loads in another window.

The answer? Inconclusive, but I can identify with Nate’s indecision.

Real names, svp.


Required, but I won't use it for anything, promise.


It'll get checked to make sure it's legit, but it's optional.
