Hi webmasters, there was a time when, if you were serious, you had to check your website layout on every major browser, meaning you should at least have Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera and Firefox. Every browser would display the website slightly different due to variations in rendering (specially padding and margin), those days are over since major browsers did a better job adopting standards, and then the variety of rendering engines reduced, and different web browsers use the (few) most common rendering engines.

Then some of us adapted and tested designs and layouts against screen sizes. Suddenly 800x600 was out, and most people had 1024+whatever, or 1200+whatever. Then new machines appeared with native 1680+whatever and somehow some layouts (specially fluid) appeared terrible on screen, or tiny due to fixed width. These are all details only serious webmasters approached, and sure it paid well due to using and providing the right UX. I'm not sure in this forum someone would disagree, and if so, I'm not sure if I would care to engage on a discussion about it.

What about now?
I still create original content from time to time, years of experience and also specific writing/editing training helped to improve my skills, but how do you condense and compress quality content?

• When you teach, or when you write, you learn descriptions and narrative face a limit of compression (short stories).
  
• Also, when you teach or when you write, there is a point where descriptions END, and distinctions begin, and become heavily important
  
• Splitting your article/content into multiple pages can sometimes bring more harm than benefit.
  
• Writing short stories might end up on "you may as well write nothing because the final product doesn't make enough sense anyway".

But it's undeniable how much people now read on mobile devices, visually things look different regarding layout and paragraph length. Suddenly, checking your content on mobile makes a lot of sense, just as we used to check layouts on specific tech in the past. Are you doing it? what's your approach? Most of us here I think have more than decent writing and reading skills, specially due to how much we research and write over the years, so long paragraphs present little to no challenge, but new generations are different, new audiences are way difference.

Decided to place this thread on this area, as it's more general (design, layout), than just about content generation or writing.
