nice effect, but suffers from 'medium disease'. font size is 'unreadably' big, I find it very difficult to read such texts on my normal 1920x1200 24" monitor.

- tech-no-logical 13y agoseriously, why ? are our eyes getting worse ? have centuries of publishers gotten it wrong all this time, and should everything have been 'large print' edition from the start ? I'm 40+ and I should probably wear glasses for reading, but I really don't 'get' the big font hype.
- redbad 13y agoI don't know about you, but I don't read a screen nearly as closely to my face as I read a book. If, for example, you normally read a screen at ~2x magazine distance, it stands to reason that screen type should be around ~2x bigger than magazine type, no?
