The Boston Globe has killed yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
De krant met de allermooiste (responsive!) website blijft internet-gericht innoveren. De volgende beslissing van The Boston Globe is een overwinning van de website op de papieren editie: redacteuren mogen niet langer ‘yesterday’, ‘today’ en ‘tomorrow’ gebruiken in hun artikelen, maar moeten de naam van de dag vermelden. Waarom? Omdat tijden veranderen.
The reason for the change is that articles are no longer written only for the newspaper. Breaking news is posted immediately on the Globe’s websites; stories are then fleshed out, posted again, then put into the process for the next day’s paper and the next day’s web entries. With all that traffic, a reliance on “yesterday, “today,” and “tomorrow” is an invitation for error. - Charles Mansbach, the Globe’s Page 1 editor.
