Opinion 'I dig the sites - pity about their usability' Victor Keegan, Guardian Technology, February 22, 2007
Newspapers are worried stiff that their future may be extinguished by the migration of news and advertising to the web and the rise of user-generated content... [There is] a new wave of web-only news sites that have replaced news editors and subeditors with the readers themselves... [They lack] one vital ingredient: usability... [Perhaps] people will migrate back to "trusted sources"... [Newspapers may] re-invent themselves either by linking directly with the web through barcode-reading mobile phones or by reconstituting what's good on the web in a way that is easy to read.
