- seszett 13y agoIt seems quite readable to me, although rather ugly.
- stephenitis 13y agoits showing up as purple and blue as if text is links for some reason right? this is what i see http://monosnap.com/image/yMYvfejx4VK1gBMRb4zOvrlz9jyHdk http://monosnap.com/image/yMYvfejx4VK1gBMRb4zOvrlz9jyHdk
- zapu 13y agoThat's weird. There was a plugin for browsers that does that, because it apparently helps some people to read faster.
- stephenitis 13y agoi remember that too but see no chrome plugins that do that installed... edit... something def is installed on my chrome but for some reason only showed itself now.

- ChrisNorstrom 13y agoSomeone posted that method on HN not too long ago. It's meant to increase readability by helping the eyes distinguish one line of text from the next. It's ugly and a tiny bit distracting at first but it really does work. Just give it a try. I zipped through those 2 paragraphs really quickly. I think it's Javascript based.
- pja 13y agoIt's based on this: http://www.beelinereader.com/ http://www.beelinereader.com/ by the looks of things (there's a beeline.min.js script included at the bottom of the page). It looks very weird, but I can believe that it might improve reading speed.
