Do you have error in the console ? 
Probably bad node version, of required packages.

IPython store many profile in .ipython/profile_<profile-name>/  on unix at least. Most of the customization happened here, 
you can overwrite some of IPython file (that is what Min's profile_jskernel does) and have some configuration.

Ok, that's good. Anaconda might be doing some weird stuff.

The problem is that other languages might want to **read** the file.

Also, I reckon the UNnecessary double quotes are evil ~ if it's mainly just going from python to the browser and you control the codebase, just pull them out, it would also encourage the use of a jsonp wrapper around the notebooks, because only jsonp and eval and not JSON.parse would work in that case, and jsonp has some serious advantages in terms of getting to you data online or offline with or without a server, over http: or file: protocol, it would be like a tripple win)

But we keep in mind those proposition. 
Would you like to open features requests on github with each of theses issue. 
When the notebook format changes, we can consider it and decide with the all core team, and people affected.

Which browser  Does it generate thumbnail of websites ? 
If so it's probably an old notebook as UUID are not kept across server restart.
