The Use of the Internet by America's Newspapers
A new study of the top 100 newspapers by The Bivings Group highlights how newspapers are embracing the Internet. Among the findings:
* 80 of the nation's top 100 newspapers offered reporter blogs. On 63 of these blogs, readers could comment on posts written by reporters.
* 76 of the nation's top 100 newspapers offer RSS feeds on their websites. All of these feeds are partial feeds, and none included ads.
* Video is offered by 61 of the newspapers.

2 comments about 'The Use of the Internet by America's Newspapers'I don't like it. Too many people putting opinions where information should be. This why we need sites like WhatWhyWhere.net which are newly developed sites that filter out useless info on a search.

Search engines and other online resources are always going to respond to the advertising buck. It biases results badly enough so that there have been times it is necessary to scan pages of results where the first response - a web address - should have been obvious.
Opinions are unpaid content and customer feedback both : blather does predominate because articles are not in an established forum for discussion. Then again : a person doesn't have to read comments.
