fellow "deep geeks" are sometimes unaware of it. I'm shocked when I look

over someone's shoulder and see them typing "www" and ".com," or horrors,

"http://." So many wasted keystrokes. It is also amazing how few people seem

to realize that many sites use their company name as their URL. Friends will

ask: "What's the address of the Washington Post?" I ask: "Have you tried

typing 'washingtonpost'?" "Oh, I didn't think of that."
