Did anyone else find that typeface completely unreadable? Without iReader, I wouldn't have bothered with the article.

I feel like people who use such a light weight for body text care more about the chunk of text "looking good" instead of actually being, you know, readable. Especially on a dull yellow.

Hardly a good attitude for a blog.

Yes. Far too lightweight for the background. Hurt my eyes.

+1 for iReader. I had to use it too. I find myself using it surprisingly often, even in this day and age, and even on some UX-savvy websites who should clearly know better.
