I like how the big quotes that separate up the paragraph aren't repeated elsewhere in the text like many similar sites seem to do!

- ben010783 9y agoI initially skipped the quotes because I'm used to them being repeated.
- pavlov 9y agoI feel the opposite way — it’s breaking the old magazine convention that pullout quotes are merely highlights for quick browsing, and it feels disorienting that there’s new information in these design elements.
- bpicolo 9y agoPullout quotes have always been silly, they never have enough context to use as skimming material either
- pavlov 9y agoDesigners like pullout quotes because they break up the monotony of body copy, and you can use fancy display fonts on them. Consequently they make pages look more "expensive" to readers simply by association with more thoughtful design.
