NWS?

[gbone]

Ok I know what you guys mean by NWS, but what exactly does NWS mean?
BTW sorry for posting here but it seemed like the only place it comes up...

Not Work Safe.

Yeah, it something that you don't want to get caught looking at while at work.

And by the way... It is NOT sufficient to put "NWS" at the top of a post, then a bunch of blank lines, then an indecent pic. Sure, you can see the NWS and just close the window, but your browser will have already loaded that picture. Someone looking over your shoulder wont see it, but a compitent network admin will. That leaves the usual trail on your computer (cache + history + maybe cookies), but more importantly, it also adds an entry to your company's proxy or gateway log and possibly sets off your IT department's sniffers that may be watching the network as well.

So, bottom line is... You guys really need to label things so that we'll see the NWS *BEFORE* our browser loads the pic. Put NWS in the title. And obviously, I don't go to the Hotties forum while at work, but the NWS stuff in the Off Topic and other forums really needs to be labeled NWS in the post title.

Ok, I'm done ranting for now...

Totally agree. But on the other hand, I think it's safe to put a title with "link inside" and have a link inside that says NWS if you click on the following link.

If it has a link inside, the link/pic haven't loaded... so it doesn't really matter than. :rolleyes: :p
