- mantrax4 12y agoWhat a coincidence that sites using it, including the beelinereader.com site itself, use super-tight line-height. Thing is, line-height helps with the same issue (but without the weird colors), so if they'd fix that, the funky colors aren't as useful anymore. But I guess we gotta save the trees from those printing their web pages or something. Whatever one may prefer, I see they offer a plugin, which is a better way to use this tech, not by random sites forcing it on us.

Is it better? That seems like the sort of claim that should be tested...
