I've heard this said a several times now, but that doesn't make me feel
any better.  I frequently find myself in situations where I *must* get
to my project site from a memorized URL, and clicking through to it is
a luxury I can ill afford.  I travel.  Sometimes I'm dependent on slow
lines and/or other people's machines.  For instance, whether I will be
able to respond promptly to new support requests and bug reports over the
entire month of May this year will depend partly on that ability.

Apart from that, we could do with some public attention and that's where
catchiness matters.
