CEO Compensation heading off the chart...

via awesome.good.is

...this controversial chart illustrates one way of considering the relationship of CEO salary to the working poor. But is there a correlation? Is each a victim of globalization (If making too much jing can be bad for one's Self/Soul.) What do you think? The source (AFL-CIO) seems dubious in that they have a vested interest in portraying the gap as something which requires amelioration. It is time the oppressed stand up and take leave of the status quo. A thought.

Eye tracking study reveals 12 website tactics

Eye tracking studies have revealed valuable information about how people read and interact with websites. One study, Eyetrack III, published a summary of their eye tracking results for news sites.

While this is just one eye tracking study focused on a particular type of site, I think there are instructive nuggets here for any informational website.
