Symptom:
Far too many readers don't realize that hyperlinked text in forum posts
are (clickable) hyperlinks to some other content.
For example.
Diagnosis:
The default font and style are so thin that people can't distinguish
the blue link from vanilla text in black.
I don't see this problem on, say, Instapundit blog postings.
Cure:
Make the default style for links not merely blue, but bold?
For example.
As a further example, here's how it looks
when a bolded link is embedded mid-sentence.
Hopefully not too garish.
