I do too. In fact, that paragraph was kinda freaky to read because I'd just gotten done highlighting it a couple times.
Thinking about it, I'm pretty sure I only do it on webpages and not in Word docs or PDFs. So I wonder if it's a way of compensating for the lack of visible vertical reference points in web text.
Like, with Word docs and PDFs there is a page divider that any given text is visibly distant from. Maybe the lack of that in long web text is a problem.
