But "they" also say: 'Being able to actually see the text helps readability'. And are those chapters available as single-page links -- or just in that cramped div/iframe with scrollbars? I know this is harsh, but after seeing quite a few designs on the front page of hn, this has the prize for detracting from the user experience.

      Scrolling the samples on my desktop is painfully slow as well (at least with Chrome and Safari). With Firefox it has proper scroll behavior.

There are some cases where animation is nice, but I find the page very distracting and unpleasant to read. edit: Did anyone else try to scroll through the iPad-esque reader in the "Choose a Chapter" section? It seems very slow. 1: http://motherfuckingwebsite.com/ http://motherfuckingwebsite.com/
