Depois de Tim Porter nos ter presenteado, há dias, com as 10 razões para continuar a ler jornais em papel (com pérolas com esta nº 9: "If I drop my newspaper, it doesn’t break"), Travis Smith respondeu com as suas 10 razões para lermos notícias num site (a minha favorita é a nº10!):
1. My news site has never stained my clean shirt or my car seat;
2. Anywhere I travel, my news site goes with me. It doesn't pile up
while I'm away;
3. I can listen to my news site's podcast while standing, while
eating, while riding a bus, OR while I drive my car;
4. If I read a story I like, I can send it to a friend without a stamp;
5. My news site doesn't just have sections -- it's customizable, and
it shows my wife and I exactly what we're interested, separately;
6. I'll give you the battery advantage. But my news site has each
apartment listing with detailed descriptions, photos and a precise
map. My newspaper says "Downtown, 2 bd/2 bt, 5 appl., ht & ht wtr,
balc, d/i pool, n/p, n/s. $1200";
7. My news site never gets stolen off my doorstep or delivered late. Or wet;
8. My news site doesn't need to be recycled;
9. If my news site is makes a mistake, they correct the original
story, and when I read that story later, I will see the corrected
version. My newspaper may not be broken, but it could be wrong;
10. I can read my news site in a light breeze.
Smith faz 'batota', acrescentando uma 11ª:
"In the past ten years, my news site has gone from a tiny
experiment to being the place I turn to for news and community. In
the past ten years, my newspaper... well, how many people can say
their newspaper has become more relevant, trustworthy and useful?"
Cheguei à 'polémica' por aqui e encontrei a resposta aqui.
