I’m going to shoot myself. This week, anyway., Something called websitegrader rated the readability of this blog:
Readability Level : Advanced Degree (PhD)
This score measures the approximate level of education necessary to read and understand the web page content.
On the other hand, I guess that confers a certain intelligence—hell, if U can read this, U R a Ph D.
Or, hey, this is a good bet: All that miserable Jakob Nielsen Chunk your Content crap has bred a nation of chunk-inhalers. Who do not read but …engorge. Snake-like. Take in the content perfectly whole, because the jawbones of the mind come easily unhinged. Whether that rat-shaped bulge will actually be digested … is anybody’s guess.
The English sentence is a lovely, intricate dance, one that emanates meaning as richly as a lover’s deep look.
With every period and comma … those marks for the human pause, the human breath.
When the language goes, I go too.
