I just found this fantastic little widget called Readability that lets you change the look of text on a website to make it more readable. Go to http://lab.arc90.com/experiments/readability/ and check it out. Unbelievably simple and surely useful for people who have a hard time reading small print, or reading on a computer. It doesn;t seem to handle multiple stories on a page, but does quite well with single stories — install it and see what it does at www.libraryweb.org, then go to one of the feature stories and try it there.

Hey, this is very cool! I wish I could add it to my Links bar instead of my Favorites, though. That would make it a little more convenient in IE.
I love that they have the opening paragraphs of Kafka’s Metamorphosis as the example!
