Subject:RE: Writing for the web From:"Mark L. Levinson" <nosnivel -at- netvision -dot- net -dot- il> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Fri, 24 Jan 2003 18:28:01 +0200
Writing for the web is like writing online help. Bear in
mind that reading from the screen is harder on the eyes
than reading from paper, and the amount of text visible
at any one time is smaller.
If the length of your text is at all appreciable, be
aware that folks will more likely skim it than read
it closely.
