History of Facebook
February 2004
The web invites the readers to choose the path and order of text to read, as
driven by the readers own desire and cognitive processing style.
Ronald Barthes used the terms readerly and writerly (in his book S/Z) to
distinguish, respectively, between texts that are straightforward and those
who demand special effort to understand.
readerly - the text is pretty much the same for each person who reads it
all the activity of an individual which occurs during a period marked by his
continuous presence before a particular set of observers and which has some
influence on the observers
