  <body>While the feature isn't done yet, I'm sharing a preview of a new feature that I hope will be useful.  It is called &quot;guides&quot;.

Guides are a list of cool scripts/users with a description of why you think they are cool.  

A special syntax is used to create links to users [u:###] and scripts [s:###].  It is so that:

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Always grab the current name of the script/user&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Creates a list of all scripts/users at the bottom for quick scanning&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;FUTURE: show popular guides on the scripts they reference&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;FUTURE: create DHTML links showing more than just the name&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

Before the guides go public I want to:

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Have a few interesting guides to put on the homepage&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Make sure it has all the features (should it link to forums, other guides, ...?)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add ratings/reviews, comments, and other features to help determine the best guides&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

So please try them out, I've created a &lt;a href=&quot;/guides/1&quot;&gt;demo&lt;/a&gt;.  You can find a list of guides at http://userscripts.org/guides as well as  can &lt;a href=&quot;/guides/new&quot;&gt;create your own&lt;/a&gt;.</body>
