It's a good way to switch to the game while the player is doing something else on the web, yes - this way if he's seeing an interesting news on bbc.co.uk while he's reading the news, he can turn on the game then. The issue is once he has started playing - he has the game interface loaded, maybe he is chatting with an NPC or with another player and has a couple of game windows open there. If he clicks on any link on the page he's currently on, all the game interface will disappear. He would then have to click a second time, on the bookmark, to get it back. It's this second click which is then an issue. But I'm not sure whether the "ajax proxy" solution wouldn't create more problems than it would solve, or if it would even work at all - do you see any gaps in my reasoning? > Also it would enable the player to play hackit on the go while he is > surfing, without having to explicitly go throught hackit webpage > first. We could still use the bookmark to allow that, it's not exclusive: the bookmark could inject code that redirects to the right page on the game's domain.
