Myth: In incremental reading, you spend seconds per article

Myth

In incremental reading, you spend mere seconds reading each article

Fact

The time devoted to an article depends on your needs. It may be a few seconds indeed (e.g. for a low priority subject, or a boring subjected required for school). An article can also take an entire day (e.g. before an exam, when doing research, or when just following one's passions)
