I have never cared out Klout. The day my employer cares about it is the day I move on to bigger and better things.

Regarding the guys website. When did it become a thing to make all content bold? I have been seeing this more and more. It's horrible. Recently The Guardian mobile website started using a bold font and I haven't used it since..

The font on my site shouldn't be bold (apart from the title). Mind if I ask which browser you're using?
It's quite heavy for me (too much for my liking as well) - Chrome 27 on OSX. The culprit is http://shkspr.mobi/blog/?custom-css=1&csblog=1&cscache=6&csr... giving a font-weight of 500. Probably affecting OSX people only
The 500 weight makes the font look bold in both Firefox and Chrome. Both Latest. Windows 8.

Thanks both. Fine in Linux - but will make some changes for those on lesser OSes :-)
Linux-on-the-desktop superiority complexes are usually annoying- but this one is especially amusing to me, since you're replying to a thread about discovering a major deficiency in your font rendering.
We all have our blind spots :-)
Actually it looks bold on Linux too.
