        Medium is very much to blame, with its default "huge image at the top" layout

          I love it when Open Source projects do this. A couple of pictures and some fancy slogans and then a link to Github, which of course tells you bugger all.
          Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

            Pay AtW for the web scraped 'content only' version of the whole internet he's downloaded. No ads, external iframed content, or other tat. It's the future.

            Also does away with the ad blocker blockers some sites are trying to use.
            Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.

              Great ideas with only one tiny drawback - we don't store HTML content...

                    Sounds like the sort of website my sister keeps wanting me to do for our small business. I keep telling her it's more important that it's fast, concise and easy to navigate than full of big fancy pictures. She spent about £4k getting the one she wanted and it looked great but took 40s to load a page and the shopping cart never worked. Hee, hee.
