The future of newspapers, copy editing, and how it all relates, like everything else, to department stores
Try this on as a new rule for newspapers: Cover what you do best. Link to the rest.
Бывает, возьмешь в руки журнал или газету, а читать его никак не получается. Бывает, даже тема цепляет и тексты потенциально интересные, но низкосортный дизайн, низкокачественные фото и ошибочная верстка — и всё, держать в руках невозможно. Я всегда была убеждена, что никакие самые распрекрасные журналистские тексты никто не будет читать без хороших иллюстраций и дизайна.
Il musicista Fabio Pianigiani e il progetto di registrare il paesaggio sonoro: dal canto del gallo al calpestio dei passi
During the past few months, the crisis in journalism has reached meltdown proportions. It is now possible to contemplate a time when some major cities will no longer have a newspaper and when magazines and network-news operations will employ no more than a handful of reporters.

As newspapers continue in the evolutionary process of optimally utilizing new information technologies to meet the myriad challenges of the day, they are struggling with issues of “clarifying” and “routinizing” the innovative technology as amplified by Rogers1 in his exploration of the innovation process organizations undergo. This research offers new insights and recommendations about applied actions that can facilitate the transformation. A survey of 63 major U.S. newspaper editors quantifies which operational procedures are predictive of greater levels of integration between the traditional print product and its Internet operation, and which influence management’s belief that this integration has met its objectives. If print/online integration is the goal, the presence of one central news desk that handles stories regardless of medium and distribution platform, and online staff participation in the newspaper’s planning meetings are among the keys.
Семиотика — наука о знаках — была основой теории графического дизайна как визуальной коммуникации. Согласно этой модели профессии, всё, произведённое дизайнером-графиком, является знаками, или «визуальными текстами». В виртуально-средовой фазе развития визуальной культуры бесчисленное множество знаков образовало новую историческую общность. Единую символическую сферу, знакосферу, обретающую самостоятельное существование. Визуальные тексты сомкнулись в визуальные контексты, которые стали важнее самих тестов. Мир стал информационным обществом, произведением графического дизайна.
In the heydays of printed newspapers, we had some similar anomalies: newspapers with terrible designs (as judged by the designer elite) would have market penetrations equally strong as those following the latest design trends and gimmicks. So what keeps eyeballs on sites, once they’ve landed there?
The most useful bit of the media is disappearing. A cause for concern, but not for panic
Всё, что есть в мире, в той или иной степени оценивается по внешнему виду. Для первого взгляда на вещь эта степень зачастую бывает завышена. Но по прошествии какого-то времени, мнение иногда меняется. «Встречают по одёжке, провожают по уму». Для сайтов конечными факторами оценки являются наполнение и удобность использования. Именно об одном из факторов удобности использования сайта и пойдёт речь в этой статье. А именно – о навигации.
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.
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.
User navigation of news websites is perhaps the biggest problem for the publishing industry since Craig Newmark did what newspapers should have been doing for years.
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.
But I fundamentally believe that newspaper publishers who are prepared to experiment, innovate and invest online will create significant cultural and commercial value as a result of their efforts.
This is a conversation.
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.

Nintendo didn't hand out their seals of approval like they were tax-free candy. Well all right, when quality was the issue, they didn't discriminate much. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if the managements of Nintendo and Sega had a bet running about who could let the most games through each year. But when it came to inappropriate graphical elements or politically inflamed topics, Nintendo would demand green blood and renaming of characters and countries so fast it would knock the wax out of your ears.

Earlier this summer, we began evaluating five U.S. daily newspapers' Web sites per week, and we ended up issuing innovation report cards for 45 publications. Only daily newspapers with a minimum print circulation of 100,000 were evaluated. What appears below is our 2009 honor roll of the most innovative U.S. metro daily newspapers' Web sites. These are the best of the big newspapers when it comes to Web innovation.
IL CORPO DELLE DONNE è il titolo del nostro documentario di 25′ sull’uso del corpo della donna in tv. Siamo partiti da un’urgenza. La constatazione che le donne, le donne vere, stiano scomparendo dalla tv e che siano state sostituite da una rappresentazione grottesca, volgare e umiliante. La perdita ci è parsa enorme: la cancellazione dell’identità delle donne sta avvenendo sotto lo sguardo di tutti ma senza che vi sia un’adeguata reazione, nemmeno da parte delle donne medesime. Da qui si è fatta strada l’idea di selezionare le immagini televisive che avessero in comune l’utilizzo manipolatorio del corpo delle donne per raccontare quanto sta avvenendo non solo a chi non guarda mai la tv ma specialmente a chi la guarda ma “non vede”. L’obbiettivo è interrogarci e interrogare sulle ragioni di questa cancellazione, un vero ” pogrom” di cui siamo tutti spettatori silenziosi.

Качественная литература по будням. Коротко.
Writing a book, short story or research paper is about more than hammering away at the keys until it's done. Research, scrawling fragmentary ideas that don't seem to fit anywhere yet, collecting faded photos from old newspapers, shuffling index cards to find that elusive structure - most writing software is only fired up after much of the hard work is already done. Enter Scrivener: writing software that stays with you from that first, unformed idea all the way through to the first - or even final - draft. Outline and structure your ideas. Take notes. Storyboard your masterpiece using a powerful virtual corkboard. View research while you write. Track themes using keywords. Dynamically combine multiple scenes into a single text just to see how they fit. Scrivener has already been enthusiastically adopted by best-selling novelists, academics, lawyers, script writers and journalists - whatever you write, grow your ideas in style.
Wurman coined the term 'information architecture' almost 30 years ago. While 'information architecture' has a different connotation today, for the purposes of this interview, it is treated as synonymous with 'information design'.

As a follow-up to our research on newspaper websites that we published recently, we decided to break out a list of the best examples of “good” newspaper websites. Steve, Todd and I collaborated on the following list, judging sites not only on their web features but also on the design, aesthetics and general usability of the site [Note: this list only covers the top 100 US newspapers in terms of circulation, which is what our study looked at. We're sure that we missed some great smaller papers.].

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.

Я обнаружил весьма забавный браузер — picidae. Суть его в том, что он работает внутри других браузеров и показывает не HTML, а… картинку. То есть, результат рендера этого браузера выдается в виде картинки, области которой размечены как ссылки. То есть по сути этими картинками можно пользоваться как обычным браузером.

Following my art icle in Design in Flight I’ve received count less emails to elab or ate, in some way, on how to cor rectly design grid sys tems. It’s quite a com plic ated field and so dis tilling it into ‘Five Simple Steps’ has proven to be quite tricky, so much so that I thought I needed to write some sort of pre face before we get on to the first part.

There are several ways to make your copy readable on the web. Yet I see sites ignoring these simple tips, all the time - especially newspapers.
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? Let’s compare a few of the individual elements from these two sites and see if that makes things clearer.
Thousands of web forums and sites propose the belief that sometime in the early years of the 21st century, a previously undiscovered planet will collide with or pass very close to the Earth destroying civilisation or causing a massive planetary cataclysm.
The data is in, and we’re ready to declare the top 15 newspaper websites of 2008! It was a hard-fought battle in a year that saw visitors to all newspaper sites rise by 12.1 percent from the year prior. 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.
Following on the idea of the procrastination dash and Jeff’s progressive dash, I’ve been experimenting with a squirelly new system to pound through my procrastinated to-do list. Brace yourself, because it is a bit more byzantine than is Merlin 2005’s newly stripped-down habit. It’s called (10+2)*5, and today it will save your ass.
