I'm not always quick on the uptake so everyone has probably been using this feature and I am the last to learn, but . . .

I was reading about Kindle APP losing the Kindle Store Button on TUAW and came accross the reccomendation to add a dedicated Icon (Button) to my Home Screen on iPad and iPhone to access the Amazon Kindle Store. That made sense so I did it, then it occurred to me that:
1) I spent much of my web surfing time here on the Forums
2) I am lazy enough to appreciate losing one step in the proccess for accessing the Forum
3) The button would look neat on my Home Screen

So . . . I now have my dedicated and direct link to the MacForums. ;)

EDIT: If there is anyone out there who doesn't know how to do this, you use the Share button at the top of your browser and it is the second menu selection.
