Wow, that's a fascinating statistic! Certainly puts the popularity delta into a different light.

On a separate note, the fartscroll.js demo page[0] no longer works since code.onion.com is no longer accessible. Truly disappointing. Luckily their release zip contains an example.html!

I remember the hype back when it was released, though. You don't hear much about it any more.
