You have ever taken the fifteen or twenty minutes it takes to navigate to the very last page of the user created flashcards in order to bookmark that page in an effort to start from the beginning and work your way forward.
or
You have ever opened up multiple browser windows so that you could do more than one flashcard set at a time (because let's face it, after 12 hours straight of doing nothing but flashcards, those 3 seconds in between each card seem like an eternity)
or
By taking into consideration such variables as your screen size, the size of a window necessary to read each flashcard, connection speed, server connection, etc, you have calculated to a scientific certainty, the absolute maximum number of flashcard sets that you can successfully open up on your computer and still maintain a high level of efficiency in answering them (My optimum was 3 and occasionally 4 screens. I actually found that I could fit about 8 windows on the same screen at once, but doing more than about three sets at once made the connection painfully slow).
