In the little bit of spare time I’ve had lately, I’ve found myself gravitating towards articles about how users digest content on the web. One of the primary themes I’ve noticed in the best work is a renewed focus on keeping things short, sweet, and to the point.
But like a lot of powerful concepts that are inevitably diluted into jargon by overuse and carelessness, it is well worth understanding, holding, and applying the substance.
