I apologise if this is not the appropriate section of the forum to post this in buhhht....

I just wanted to suggest a random article button. Since my brain fucntioning well, I decided to illustrate my idea HERE

Why is it a good idea?
1.Wikipedia does it, and I learn a new thing everyday
2.It could help others if they can't decide which anime they want to watch due to the large selection.
3.I guess it'd be fun...

Why is it a bad idea?
I'd like to know Razz

Thank you for taking time to read this Smile

Look for "Random Fun" below "Recent Reviews."

We'll look into it. The possible "downside" is the time it takes to program it (pretty negligible) and the space it will take in the layout.

In the meantime, for a completely random page, go to Google.com, turn out "instant" type in "site:animenewsnetwork.com" and hit "I'm feeling lucky."

What does "turn out 'instant' type" mean? if you just hit "lucky" with the ANN site tag it just keeps giving you the first result... whioch for some reason is not the top page, but a review for the '04 Appleseed movie.

He meant turn off instant.

..but you're right - ever time I try it I get Appleseed.
