What's up with the fascination with small type in general on the web? I see more and more pages, especially blogs, with microscopic type. I know it's easy to enlarge text in IE, but IMO i shouldn't have to.

I think it's mostly dumb kids with giant monitors and screwed up settings for their browsers. So many of those myspace blogs are set for 1280 px wide and the font/background contrast makes many of them unreadable. Which is why I compare them to the previous scourge of personal web sites - Geocities.

Most blogger or LJ blogs in contrast, have a more professional and readable layout.

I suspect it is an age discrimination thing. My eyes could read real small type when I was 15. Not so good at 30. Now I like 14 point type.
