...unless this is another surprise (for us, the users) feature.
@chris12345: I had noticed it myself, but it isn't very much fun to report something as a bug, and discover that it's an "improvement" here, in Kafka's Deals.
If you twitter, you can message @smiller, mentioning this.
This could be an unintended consequence of the whole flashing edit/reply/delete button feature.
@catbertthegreat: Oh, god. It is to be hoped. Perhaps the thought of cascading errors is more appealing to me than it rightfully should be. This is beginning to seem more and more like work, and less like fun.
@shrdlu: I don't tweet, so we'll just have to wait for someone important to notice for themselves or happen across this thread, if they haven't had their coffee and didn't notice the blinding gray-ness of the main page.
@chris12345: you could always email a screen shot to service@woot.com. I did that the other day with a wine.woot bug. The google buzz icon was a Taco instead of that multi-colored speech bubble.
@chris12345: Ok its back! Whew
@chris12345: Yeah, to me, Twitter is about as useful as an extra leg. I will use it, IFF there's something that seems to work best that way, but I far prefer almost any other form of contact. I'm old fashioned. Email FTW.
@sgoman5674: The Buzz/taco icon looks to be intentional.
@chris12345: Here's an amusing tidbit. Over on Twitter, @snapster's picture is a taco. I think it's no coincidence that Buzz is represented by a Taco.
