As of a couple of minutes ago, when I select a topic to see in totallygeeked, at the top of the screen an open book appears and it says: Reader review. Do not have a clue what this is and will not click on it. I am using Firefox, if that makes any difference, but do not remember adding anything new. It does not show up when I look at the topics I have posted, only when I look at the topics others have posted.
Are any of the rest of you seeing this? What exactly does it do? Think I will just ignore it for a bit.

Yeah, I know. LOL Never noticed it before this morning. Cannot find any info on the web about it. Think I will just ignore it until someone knowledgeable comes along and tells me (us) about it.
OK. Here we go. Evidently this is part of a Firefox app called Pocket, which will save things into a "pocket" for you to read later or again and again. I do not know exactly how it got on my computer but I am trying to figure out how to uninstall it....
From what I can tell from the Firefox site, this Pocket is now an integral part of Firefox and there is no getting rid of it. Just ignore it or use it as one sees fit...
Go to the right a bit and you will see a kind of semi circle figure with a pfc stripe upside down in it . Not a very good description maybe. Between you bookmark icon and the download icon. Anyway, click on that and it will take you to your "pocket" where you have saved everything that you clicked the little book on. So I think instead of a place marker, when you click on it it automatically transfers the page to your pocket....
