Best way to hide text: Go up

With a larger monitor I’ve noticed many websites hiding text by sending it to the left or right. This works great on smaller monitors, but on higher resolution you all of a sudden see that text way off the side.

Simply send the text up instead. No matter how high of a screen resolution your user has, they will never be able to scroll above the top of your website.

   position:absolute;
   top:-1000;
