    Many people haven’t gotten into the habit of using the Home and End keys to go to the top and bottom of the page, so I don’t find Back to Top links highly objectionable.

    Print this page links can present a printer-friendly page, instead of the main page which is generally littered with banners and other stuff.

    Add to favorites – Not a big fan.

    Back button – Can be useful in workflow scenarios, but it better do exactly the same thing that the back button in my browser does. Generally the more common pattern is to provide a link, with describing text, such as “Return to Main Page.”

    Text Zoom Button – Love it. It allows me to tweak one site, while retaining the settings in my browser for other sites.
