Abstract: Style II
"The main focus I would like to look at is whether there is, as Jacob Nielson points out, one right way to build a web page." After some consideration I've decided that this isn't the best way to phrase this point. A better way to phrase this is "Why is it that most sources on writing for a web page perscribe this kind of method?" I feel that this is because the internet is being designed around a "pop-culture" way of reading the web and as such it is being driven in one way. Is it wrong to write a site in long blocks of text that an average reader doesn't want to take the time to read? Not if the point of our site is aimed at a "fringe culture" such as academics or computer science. These are not desinged with the average user in mind, yet they are welcome to read it if they wish.
