I liked it a lot. Like i was telling you before.... there are people at MIT who have developed this thing that will track your eyes, and interface with you as a mouse. so where ever your eyes move... so does the mouse. and if you stay long enough on one thing, then it is counted as a click. sounds pretty neat. But i have always wanted to know more about where your wyw actually goes and why. I think these guys could do a more extensive research, or actually test real sites, and not mock sites. thank you. hey, that article was great. I liked it a lot.

Online writers need to write FOR scanning, because people scan naturally. And I also tend to disagree with their point of making text smaller, that it encourages people to read and not scan, when in all actuality if text is small I tend to not bother reading it. The purpose of scanning is to find something interesting you want to read... So yes as they mentioned headlines need to be well written, that has always been, and body needs to be well written, but scanning needs to be utilized to get people interested in the content. yeah that brings up a point I don’t necessarily agree with in that article.
