Surely, this should be an easier one to implement. Just as Digg has the option to open the link in a new window (or tab), I think it would be useful here. Id like to look at the bargain then read/write comments on OZBargain.
Also, surely OZbargain has grown enough to be out of beta? Keep up the good work Scotty.
Don't you all middle-click on the item to open them in a new window/tab? :) It is easy to open the deals on a different window (set target="blank" on the anchor tag for example). However there is no way to override and open the deals in the same window if target has been set.
As of Beta. Well it is still under development but I shall push out the new theme sometime this week which gets rid of "beta" on the logo :)
