Cool stuff. He obviously said it wasn't intended for production, but the major issue that comes to mind is SEO since engines won't see the text as actual text.

- shard 17y agoNot being able to select/copy text is pretty annoying too.
- Zev 17y agoYou can copy the text. It just doesn't have the outline to show you what's selected. Which is quite annoying, yes.
- ElbertF 17y agoSearch engines will see the actual text, it's just hidden with CSS. You can see it when you turn off CSS (Firefox: view -> page style -> no style).
- jayphelps 17y agoMissed that, thanks for the heads up! Now my only issue would be that the text-indent: -9999em method has been known to get you flagged for spam for obvious reasons. But I'm being facetious. I like to play devil's advocate. :o)
