Hey vroom, you know, this is a good point. The reason this guy couldn't find the helpful nodes is because they are buried in what looks like line noise. (And they are under "information" instead of "help") Seems to me the best place to put a "help" button/link would be way up on the top bar, to the right of "search". You definitely need a "help" button somewhere, because the nodelets are much too dense, information-wise, for a newbie to figure out what the hell is going on.

I know some people love the /. design principles, but I don't think they're working here. (What, like, 5% of the new posters figure out they can use HTML and to put their code in special tags?)

Hmmm, for XP, I should have stuck this post in the quest area. Oh well.
