Looks interesting, but with all the hyphens it get's kinda nauseating to read the whole text.


Strangely enough, it's not hyphenated in the source code, just placed within <em> tags.

I wonder what's adding the hyphens. From my quick glance at it, nothing that I saw added hyphens.


There is a CSS property set on all elements. It doesn't seem to be working quite right...

* { text-rendering: optimizelegibility; }


I'm a bit confused by this, I don't see any hyphens (Chrome on Linux). Anyone know what's going on here?


Chrome on windows 7. I get hyphens everywhere and it makes it difficult to read.


Interesting. I'm using Chrome 8.0.552.215 beta on Ubuntu 10.04. This is what I see when I visit the website: http://imgur.com/vKrLZ

It appears to be a bug of some kind with the optimizelegibility property, although I don't know exactly why it's adding hyphens.


I don't see hyphens in Chrome, but odd, disruptive gaps in the middle of words.

I did an 'inspect element', then meandered up to the head to look at what CSS there was. My jaw dropped. There's about 10K lines of CSS getting pulled in, all for the ads.


I see spaces instead of hyphens on Dolphin Browser for Android.


Chrome on Mac here, looks fine. Virtually no hyphens.


Fine on iPad


Paste this into your address bar:

  javascript:(function(){jQuery('*').css({'text-rendering':'auto'});})();

Seems to be a browser-specific bug. I see 9 hyphens total on Chrome on Win 7. 8 total on IE 8.


Yep, I stopped after that also.
