Well, at least you made me try but my experience is the exact opposite :
- first a full screen pop-up that I have to manually close which suggests
to bookmark the page
- second, confusing mix of upper case and lower case in the URL
- third, incorrect rendering of the preview page
- fourth, except for "up", IP and response time, there's no useful
information. The other one gives lots more information and waterfalls.
So I'm a bit surprised by your suggestion, are you affiliated in any way
to this site ? If so, I wouldn't necessarily be against adding an extra
link to help gain a bit of visibility, but this is not exactly what I'd
call a honest approach, and in either case I'm not motivated to go any
further.
Thanks,
Willy
