[LM_NET] HIT: "Hourglassing"

[Jill Brown <buflib@YAHOO.COM>]

Hi -

We learn something new everyday if we're not careful!

Original post:  "What is "hourglassing?"

Responses included an exercise regimen designed to
produce a specific body shape (my personal favorite),
a type of search that broadens and narrows the
subject, and watching the hourglass while waiting for
the next screen on a PC (called "beachballing" on a
Mac?).  I think the last one is probably the context
in which I originally heard the term.

What a group.  Thanks.
