Forgive me for a small rant, but this has been building up for quite awhile. What is it with Techdirt's lack of paragraphs? Are their pinkys sore or something?

I read a lot of posts every day, and a feed like the one to the right is unreadable. Just look at that solid block of text! There is something about it being on a computer screen that makes it impossible to read.

Being charitable, I always assumed that it was their feed misformatting the text. So, today, I clicked to the website.

And found, to my surprise, that the original post is the same - one solid block of text, unorganized by paragraphs.

Which is why - if anyone wonders - I don't report on Techdirt very often. I just can't read their *&%#$%& posts.

Heh. Sorry about that...

We actually *do* use paragraphs:

and have for quite a while.

However, our standard post is simply one paragraph, and the goal is to keep the info short and get it out there.

Sometimes the paragraphs go too long. We'll try to do a better job...
