what the hell does this mean?
why has it started poping up in multiple news articles/other places on the web?

Is this some new uber 133t writer/blogger speak?

then why is it in the middle of a written article when directly followed by the next paragraph?
I've even seen it mid paragraph.

They usually have an animated ad between the paragraphs

I assume this is the 'jump'

Just this morning Luke Wilson's face interrupted me reading about Portuguese Tax Law



Anyone using this supposes that their audience isn't familiar with the concept of a hyperlink, or attempts to make the act of clicking on one some kind of novel or interesting internet superhighway 'experience'. Fuck off you gigantic cunts.

After the jump means after you click on the link to the full article. Lots of sites have the introduction to the article as well as the introductions to many articles written to give the reader an idea of what it is about beyond the headline. Reading something "after the jump" is clicking on the link to the full story and reading the rest of it.
