Sorry, I have to disagree with the entire premise here.
A wide variety of experiences might lead to well-roundedness, but not to greatness, nor even goodness. By constantly switching from one thing to another you are always reaching above your comfort zone, yes, but doing so by resetting your skill and knowledge level to zero.
Mastery comes from a combination of at least several of the following:

| pru = "!f() { git fetch -fu upstream refs/pull/$1/head:pr/$1; } ; f" | |
| pr-clean = "!git for-each-ref refs/heads/pr/* --format='%(refname)' | while read ref ; do branch=${ref#refs/heads/} ; git branch -D $branch ; done" |

| user.One | |
| ;; unsurprisingly, this type only has a single static value, which wraps the '1' | |

How I finally got Conkeror to be the default browser on Ubuntu 11.10.
The beginning was this bug comment: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/708382/comments/4
There was also a .desktop file entry, from an answer here http://askubuntu.com/questions/45885/how-do-i-set-a-custom-browser-as-default-in-preferred-applications by 'rakete'
So it ended up being, create this file in ~/.local/share/applications/firefox.desktop
#!/usr/bin/env xdg-open
