"Lazy Eyes"
"Lazy Eyes" by Michael
Agger is an interesting article. It shines light on what it means to use the Internet
and how we read articles online. He talks about how fonts, spacing, and how
long the paragraph is; can affect how the reader reads the article. For example
if the paragraph is to long the reader might just skip it and move on. He also
talks about how the Internet is a jungle and how as users we are “selfish, lazy
and ruthless.” He explains these words because when arriving to a page we don’t
really read it or take time to appreciate it. We just skim the page for what we
need and move on. To be honest I think Michael is correct and I agree with what
he has to say. I never knew I was doing these things until he pointed it out.
We should really take the time to appreciate the work that we find on the Internet
instead of milking it for what we need. But at the same time who has time to
really read every single little detail.
