Readability
Ads are a pain.
One site I like to visit is tvguide.com. I find it a perfectly good waste of time to check out news stories about shows I like to watch. On top of the normal ads tvguide.com has around the perimeter of their site, they essential advertise other articles right in the middle of the current article. Sometimes these links can be confusing because they appear to be a part of the story you’re reading.
Another site I check frequently for news is cnn.com. Like most websites, CNN has ads all over their webpages. Once again, the amount of advertising makes it difficult to read the actual content. The image below is purposely shrunk in order to get an overview of what a webpage with a simple news article on cnn.com looks like.
I discovered a great tool that easily gets rid of all the webpage clutter. It’s called Readability. Installation is easy. You simply go to the Readability website and make a favorite/bookmark from the Readability button found there. Check out the difference in the images below.
