Ii keep my MOS bookmarks outside of MOS, it saves so much of hassle, when you have to login with many MOS Login ids ( different work and personal ones etc).

i also noticed that MOS Hot Topic Email has links pointing to the internal web address, which is not accessible from outside Oracle. looks like someone has not updated the URL entry in one of the configuration table after the migration/upgrade. i have raised "Contact Us SR" with MOS for same.
