Blinking lights save power and lead to longer battery life, hence the cycle lights with different blink settings. The power savings can be substantial, one of the back lights I use switches between 'full on' (3 leds, full power) a

Chromium - and with that I assume Chrome - has a reader mode, you just need to enable it on startup. They call it 'DOM distiller' instead of 'reading mode' but it does more or less the same thing. It can be enabled using
