My Comments:

I am attracted to the idea of involvement but it is hard to get people to do things (other than observe)
Also: What is our message anyways? Motive? Aim/Goals?

Might be able to think of lots of ways of getting people's attention
BUT what will we do with it once we have it?

Visually Differentiated Text

I love visually differentiated text (although I didn't know that was what it was called until this evening).
  • Other types of text are frustrating and distracting for me.
  • They take much longer to convey the same amount of information.
  • I use visually differentiated text whenever I can.
