They are trying to capture any intresting, because you are most probably curious. They are trying to filter relevant information, because you are most probably searching. Your eyes are most probably used to that behaviour, because you do not know anything else.
More and more websites pretending to be user-friendly, innovative and serving only useful content. And you know, that is total bullshit. Amazon hides it logout-button on an unexpected position in a drop-down (or fly-out) menu. Twitter does the same. They are all following the same trend, namely user-un-friendliness.
