I love this HTML.* If only all the web could follow this simple way to convey information. CONTENT. Heck, that's what makes HN interesting. It's the lack of web developer fluff. Just text. CONTENT.

*But why the reference to tags.js? Javascript is not used.

It's a web stats program. Tags.js is sending the document URL and referrer back to some server, and injecting a click tracking script into the page.
That's assuming the user has js enabled. What I like about this is that it's just one line. No inline script (that would be just bloat for the user with js turned off.)
