bitterpill has a very cool “alt alt text” popup to use for hint text.
I have been working on an idea that gina and nick were discussing at lunch one day. Basically, its a more sophisticated alt text/title popup. It’s born out of a frustration with title text in Mozilla that won’t wrap lines, and fades too quickly to read any large amount text. I call it alt alt text.

Current Electoral Vote Predictor 2004
Easy way to keep track of the latest polls.
Another bumper crop of polls, 36 of them in 17 states to be exact. And as usual, the bottom line is that it is still a statistical tie. In the Zogby tracking polls, Bush has taken a 2% lead in Michigan, although in Rasmussen’s tracking poll, Kerry has a 2% lead. Research 2000 give Kerry a 4% lead there.
