The Wordless Web
There are some great tricks to seeing websites without ads or pictures (including the Reader button on your iPhone's Safari browser), but Ji Lee wanted to try seeing the web without words. With the Wordless Web bookmark anyone can easily see if a picture is worth a thousand words, and also if the majority of visuals are ads or content. Try it a few times and you'll see it's a much different world wide web out there without the copy. It doesn't do much for Wikipedia, but for overly busy sites it can almost be calming not to see all the ink marks.
"It’s like being in a silent party where everyone agreed not to speak, but to just walk around and smile at each other," Lee told Wired Magazine about applying it to Facebook for fun. And before you even ask, our sources are confident that Lee isn't working on a real time, live version that can be applied to drunk family members, yappy dogs, or that ding dong in your office that says dumb shit.
