There are a group of sports statistics sites, baseball-reference.com, basketball-reference.com, etc. that I sometimes use to look up sports info. The other day I noticed a new feature they’ve implemented that vastly improves the experience of reading one of their statistics pages. It is quite simple, really — they just highlight the line that the cursor is hovering over — but it makes it far easier to read the line you are trying to read.

This is just an example of how attention to the little details can make big improvements on any website.

(Too bad it doesn’t work in IE…)
