it's rather boring, isn't it? You have to wait a while and watch the line, indicating the character's movement, as he rides on the subway or hops a cab. I was impatient very quickly. If this is an example of what publishing has in mind to compete for "the attention economy," I'd say they're kidding themselves. Nobody is going to sit with their face in their hands waiting for the green line to take them to the next spot for text. Also, there's nothing visually interesting about looking at the tops of buildings. You have no sense of the city, no sense of the architecture...not very good, I'm afraid.
