Re: Marketing: default CSS?: msg#00191lang.smalltalk.squeak.seaside
To distill the content of this article to one sentence (so you don't have to click on the broken link to read the old news dressed up in new pseudoscience): "In [...] one-twentieth of a second [...] people make aesthetic judgments [...]" That's about one frame of television. Ever catch a meme about subliminal messaging being slipped into your movies, like roofies? Same idea. People cannot REACT in one twentieth of a second -- this is why drag race "Christmas trees" have yellow lights, to allow anticipation. The RESULT is what I care about (does the user reach for the back button?), and that's not what's being measured here...
