We've had reports from users that amongst other things, if you use the Web Stalker on a site with extra content being added to it every few hours, such as some news services for instance, you can start to find files whilst they're still in the queue - before the news 'happens'.

To describe the predelictions of this approach to interface you only have to note that the default background colour in page-construction programs is grey.

But it is also something that happens at a level that is also profoundly interwoven with politics in the development of these potential cultures of use.
