Guys, guys...frames suck. Why would you WANT to "frame" a web site? The effect frames have on usability is catastrophic. When you frame a web site, you effectively embed one site into another, which breaks the ability to bookmark, which can cause all kinds of annoyances with the web's forward/backward navigation, it confuses users, it can be used to make other's work appear as someone elses...

Ugh. I'm all for raising the pitchforks and torches to support deep linking, but I'm rather shocked that somebody who is usually as smart as Cory would WANT Boingboing to be framed.
