This definitely does not have the desired effect for me. The uneven contrast made me read slower since I found myself re-scanning the same words again to confirm their spelling. It's only slightly less distracting than reading rANdoMlY CaPitAliSeD tEXt.

Me too, I find it absolutely terrible. I read it at about 10% of the speed I usually read. In the sample I saw, I could read the plain version in a few seconds, but I just couldn't make any headway with the highlighted version. I'm used to syntax highlighting, which doesn't slow me down at all (might make in fact make reading code faster) but this just throws me for a loop.
