Hello Biosciences:

As SBSA transitions to a great new leadership team, and in the spirit of holding your representatives accountable, I would like to provide a summary of SBSA's past year and some thoughts on future directions and improvements.

Best,

quicklinks

The new-tab page on most browsers inefficiently uses screen real estate by giving each website a picture and large button. While useful for[...] tablets, it prevents addition of many websites and can't be organized into groups without increasing the number of clicks required. Also, often only one search site is accessible, with the rest found in a drop-down menu. To alleviate this, I created quicklinks. It uses javascript to create a row of categories (that you choose), which when hovered over show associated links. Further, there are several search bars readily avaliable, no extra clicking needed. Enjoy.
