This website has terrible styling of anchors, and I accidentally clicked a link over a dozen times while reading just one page, on my touch screen phone. Why? Because they're completely invisible. There is no indication whatsoever that some particular text is a link, apart from a faint degree symbol (what?) at the end of the sentence. Please, don't re-invent the wheel: links should be under-lined, or at least coloured blue or some other distinctive colour. And even if you tap on a completely blank part of the page (such as to clear a selection), there is apparently some hidden link that brings you to a random page. I can't figure it out.
In general, I find the website hard to use. Even though a lot of his typographic advice is sound, the UX is just bad and not suitable for a website.
i don't know; i was inclined to agree just out of a knee-jerk "don't break standards" reflex, but it's a deliberate decision for which he makes a very compelling point:
Vigorously styled hyperlinks on a page tend to move to the foreground of a reader’s attention, like an HDTV in a hotel bar. (See also maxims of page layout.) The red circle is meant to be noticeable while you’re reading the sentence that contains the link. Otherwise it disappears, so as not to distract.
edit: though having internal links be completely invisible until you hover on them is a startlingly bad design decision
