    I like about the new site.

    The new horizontal slide thing in the top right corner that tells you how many posts there are in the thread, once it gets to say above 10, it is quite fun to scroll down and up the page and watch the new slide thing go back and forward, whilst making that noise(sometimes out loud, sometimes in my head) that instrument makes that you pull the tube at the bottom and then put it back in again. It is used to make cartoon noises when something/somebody goes up and down. I can't remember the name of it though, it is the same size as a recorder, but you blow into it, while pulling the thing at the bottom.

    Unfortunately, you won't manage to experiment on this thread, as the slide thing doesn't really work as well if there are only a few posts, but feel free to try it on other threads<ok>

    Push left and right on your keyboard and it scrolls as well. I programmed that myself, where's my peanut?

    As impressive as that is, it goes a bit too quickly for the noise I am making whilst doing it

    I have no sound on this laptop. I feel like I might be missing out on one of life's great opportunities here.

    I think you are misunderstanding the whole fun of it all. The beauty of it is, you make the sound yourself! You can get people in the office to join in too(maybe don't suggest that if you have just started with the company though, just make sound in your head first until you are comfortable with it)

    I would probably murder you first, to see if that made me feel any better.

    Not to worry, there are enough posts in this thread now to play the game on this thread, it saves you going to other threads to play it.

    The multiview feature is a good idea, but it would be better if you could see the chatbox from it.
