What I see on my screen is a left paren, followed by a perfectly valid URL, followed by a right paren. Why would that not be valid? The parens in this case are just random characters outside of the URL, the same as whitespace characters would be if you type a URL in the middle of a sentence. - Denton Gentry
Denton, I think that might be his point. He's trying to catch URLs that actually are supposed to contain a left or right paren in it. - Jordan Hofker
Now I understand. The problem is ambiguity of whether the right paren is part of the URL or separate. - Denton Gentry
Exactly. It doesn't seem like there's a good solution to this problem, either. Except maybe not allow people to use them in URLs :-) - Jordan Hofker
Actually for power users Office 2007 is a pain in the ass, at least at first. Most of the advanced features that we were used to having access to from the menu are now hidden and can only be accessed by adding them to the quick bar. Plus I really miss having toolbars on the left and right of the apps. It's a lot quicker a lot of the time to click a well placed button on the left or right as opposed to going up all the time. - AlexScoble(Robert'sBro)
Jeff, are you being sarcastical or for serious? - Yolanda
@Roberto - We need to drag Jeff here first. - Yuvi
I see your point. He's here but never comments or likes. Even Mike Arrington shows up (i've never actually see him like or post, but I hear he does). Kind og like a "virtual Jeff" - Roberto Bonini
@Roberto - exactly. He's just feeding in, not participating. - Yuvi
