Huge difference between reading forums or short articles and reading a book.

Just like right now. I read one topic - 2-10 replies. Then my eyes move to a corner of the screen, they follow mouse, I have to click on something, I have to switch to another tab etc. When you read a book you have to concentrate on the same text all the time for hours and it is very difficult for my eyes.
