I have a problem. People post links to things on GW's website occasionally, but every time I click on such a link I only get the main page. I know for certain it's linking to a product or article at times, but still I get the homepage. Can anyone offer any insight? This has been driving me crazy for a couple weeks now.

 I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent. |

Probably cos your browser settings are set to delete cookies and history. So rather than 'remember' where you home location is set to when you visit the GW site, it thinks you are a first time visitor. At least, same thing happens to me - I use firefox and clear my history etc on browser close.

This happens to me, but when I arrive at the home page and select my country, I am then taken to the page I was originally linked to.

Yup. If you select your country on the front page, it will continue through to the linked page.

Yes... I just realized that a few days ago. After previously always closing the window in frustration without selecting my country.
It was an oddly discouraging realization...
