Are Blogs Outdated? The Times Eliminates Several, and Explains Why
As The Times continues to change – becoming more digital, becoming more global, looking for new ways to make money as print advertising declines – it frequently adds new features or puts more emphasis on established ones, like video.
Hardly anyone complains about that. But, in the process, when some features are eliminated to devote more resources to the new, readers notice – and often register their disagreement.
I wrote a few months ago about one such decision I strongly disagreed with: the elimination of the Green blog, which had served as a useful clearinghouse for good information, aggregation and fresh reporting about the environment........
Whoops, there goes another one.
