Setting the cut off point

Nov 10th, 2008 by Los Havros

You may or may not have noticed, but one of my latest posts, Hands-on with LittleBigPlanet was quite an epic length. More so than a lot of my articles. If you view the article on the homepage, you won’t see all of it as I have had to use the dreaded ‘more’ tag.

I’ve resisted using the ‘more’ tag up till now as it can annoy a lot of people: feeds are incomplete, and it’s an extra click to read the rest. However due to the length of this article, I thought it would be unfair to readers who want to see what else is on the site (particularly on the home page). In short, it takes up way too much real estate on the homepage.

So, if I do write an article of a similar length in the future, expect it to have the ‘more’ tag. This is a friendly heads-up from your friend and trusted writer, Los Havros
