@Mr Papa - I'm pretty sure the flyout only happens when you hove over a menu item so it shouldn't be that bad.

@Kaspars - After reading Andrews post and then yours, I think some of the choices in that poll went above and beyond solving the problem and created a whole new menu which was not the purpose of the exercise. Maybe the whole title should be a link to the blog. As for the favorite actions block, it's all the way on the right hand side of the site and I my brain never stops to think about using that block to gain access to anything. I dunno, it's weird. I've been clicking Edit - New Post on the left to write a new post LOL
