Imagine "Here, lets browse to the forum now that was referenced in the email you received and lets see what's going on".
Snapshot- This afternoon.
This is my point.
But
I totally agree with the great idea about the lookup index but I honestly don't see it happening. I think once and every couple of days we should post some sort of reference material that is added to over time so that a new reader to the forum can, in a nutshell, grasp what our main points are. These should include links to the better sites like your own and all obvious others.
Edit - I think the post I was responding to must have been deleted but the gist still applies to what I previously said.

That would be totally in keeping with the underhand, dishonest way that Phorm have chosen to conduct their business thus far.
However, if the EU commissioner's team had spent more than 30 seconds reading yesterday afternoon's exchanges, they could not have failed to spot that amongst the chaff, several people repeatedly asked the pro-Phorm poster, in a calm, polite manner, to put forward any clear, logical arguments in favour of the Webwise system that he/she could think of.
Equally, they would have noted that no such arguments were forthcoming.
Conclusion drawn by EU team: Even Phorm's most rabid defenders can't come up with a cogent argument as to why we should accept this intrusion of our privacy for someone else's commercial gain.
Hypothetically speaking, I think their grubby little plan backfired, don't you?
