Re:Show HN: Etherpad meets Markdown for a minimal company wiki by bmelton on Monday December 17, 2012 @01:00PM (#4933422)
I was fighting against making the same comment, since it's kind of a weird thing that I do when viewing a web page is to repeatedly select the block of text I'm reading.

Whenever people are looking over my shoulder, they always seem annoyed by my doing it, so I figure I'm unique in that regard, but I'm glad somebody pointed it out.

It's not weird... lots of people do it. I do it to keep track of where I'm reading...

There was actually a HN Poll about it a little while ago: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4839436
