95% of the information on the web is written language. It is only logical to say that a web designer should get good training in the main discipline of shaping written information, in other words: Typography.

Take a look at the main page of CNN.com and then take a look at USA Today.com. I think you’ll notice that even though USA Today’s is not a terrible design, by comparison it is far more chaotic in presentation. But why is this?

I teach university courses about online journalism and the changing ways we use technologies for communication. I love seeing multimedia used well to tell journalism stories.

The Bivings Report (TBR) is a source of news, insight, research, analysis and conversation on web-based communications and its increasingly powerful role in the economy, politics and society.

We’ve ranked the top 15 by average monthly unique visitors, according to Nielsen Online, which is the source of all our data (via Editor & Publisher’s monthly reports). Analysis, charts, and fancy interactive graphics will follow later today and tomorrow, but first, let’s see the list.

Современная российская Интернет-журналистика специфична в двух аспектах: в сравнении с традиционными формами этой профессии и в сравнении российского ее сегмента с Интернет-журналистикой других стран.

The reading-deep phenomenon is even stronger online than in print. At a time when readers are assumed to have short attention spans, especially those who read online, this qualifies as news.

Газеты не имеют будущего, если не будут развивать онлайновые и цифровые сервисы — такое мнение прозвучало на конференции, организованной Всемирной ассоциацией газет в Мадриде.

определенной части прессы есть трудности с интернетом. Им становится сложнее набирать аудиторию, поскольку доступ к большей части информации можно получить бесплатно через интернет, не отходя от рабочего места. Это меняет ситуацию на рынке бумажной прессы, потому что на нем начинают выигрывать специализированные издания и журналы.

As more newspapers kick around the idea of charging for content, much of the attention has been focused on the pay models employed by the bigger players like the WSJ and the Financial Times. But quietly, some small- and medium-circulation papers are coming up with their own formulas to get readers to pony up for access to their websites. We checked in with some of these papers to find out how much they are charging and how they’re faring.

Do we read differently on the computer screen from how we read on the printed page? It’s an interesting question.
