PDA: Publishers need to mimic tech firms, says FT.com chief, Jemima Kiss, Guardian, April 22, 2008
Ien Cheng, publisher and managing editor of FT.com, has a vision for the digital incarnation of the Financial Times. In his world, publishers need to remodel themselves on technology companies, working more quickly and more responsively to keep up with the webby world... "We need to learn from the web start-up and pure play web company approach that has technology much closer with the business. Publishers can't just thnk it's the it department over the wall that they throw stuff to." [says Cheng]... "The challenge for us is to become not just a publisher but a technology company in order to support that publisher."
