Why can't I figure out how to make this work!

It needs a Webkit-based browser like Safari or Chrome.

Well, your deficiencies aside, get as many twins as you can and make as twin-packed a katamari as you can for a beautiful constellation. For a super fab wonderful sky. Since it's all about twins, you'll have 10 minutes, double the usual. We look forward tothe result, solitary Prince...

Chrome on my Mac wasn't working but Safari was great.. good fun! For those on laptops, choose "Left Click" and you'll be rollin' in no time.

I'm using Firefox 3.6 and it definitely worked for me. Make sure your "control" button isn't conflicting with mouse gestures (for example).

This didn't work for me the first pos, and didn't work on the double either.

It works for me with Win7 and Chrome.

That's swell.

In the mean time, can we get a reliable way for doing rounded corners, columns or layers?

It's worth mentioning again that this works by replacing the URL in the address bar with the javascript, not appending it to the URL. Took me a while to figure that one out, maybe I'm just slow.
