Useful idea for a user-driven resource repository
From 2 comments
I think the web needs a user-driven repository of "how to learn X" submissions, so this could be good!
jakswa on HNGreat idea, I like it! Just one thing, you need to escape the "#" for the C# tag in the URL (C%23). The browser ignores the "#" and so it returns the result for just "C".

Add hover titles to stats

Questions
What do the eye icons on the right mean
From 2 comments
On the left hand side there are stars. On the right hand side, there are stars and eyes. What's the meaning of the latter?
jakub_g on HNleft hand stars are ones you've starred. Right hand stars are total number of times a link has been starred. Eyes = click throughs?
