make all links target new window

I was actually searching for a js way to do this, but i found this instead. Here is a really easy way to make all links target a _blank window. Just add this to your <head>.

<base target="_blank">

as a side note this can actually get annoying as you have to add target _self to make the link stay in the same window if you have _blank on all links, so i guess it depends if you have more links that you want external than you want to have.

<base target="_self">

here is the full usage for target

<a target="_blank|_self|_parent|_top|framename">

When i was a little kid, I was really scared of the dark. But then I came to understand, dark just means the absence of photons in the visible wavelength -- 400 to 700 nanometers. Then i thought, well, its really silly to be afraid of a lack of photons. Then i wasn't afraid of the dark anymore after that.
