It's honestly kinda broken. It only works on sites that are aligned left unless you resize your browser. The vertical info bar is somewhat helpful, though the idea of people not scrolling is somewhat of a myth nowadays. Anyone looking to design a website really ought to be using something like http://960.gs/ .. a grid system makes a huge difference and it's already set to 960px, which is what 90% of people can see.

Thanks for the tip. Looks like a pretty helpful tool. Keeps me from having to use Web Developer Toolbar to resize the window a zillion times.

Unfortunately, this won't work for liquid or hybrid layouts, only fixed position layouts.

Would like the ability to use vertical only or input size ratios.

We generally try to test out our sites on 1024×768 as a median size and still looks decent on the bigger resolutions.

Definitely going to check this out. This is a problem I've noticed on quit a few sites. I visit from a mobile device or on my small Dell "netbook," and the site is completely messed up. And I mean "unusable" messed up. At least, though, It's a constant reminder for me to keep in check with what I'm doing.

I claim to be a google fan, but they're continually rolling out new benefits that I'm unaware of. Thanks for continuing to update me.
