@ Michael Martinez I think it's fair to say that just having an SEO team is more symbolic unless they are really tearing it up. I honestly have not taken a look around to see how 'well' they are doing but in general the larger the company, the bigger the bureaucracy the harder it is to get SEO done. But hey at least they are thinking that way Frank Reed's last blog post..The Genesis of Twitter

The New York Times has an in-house SEO team. If that team isn’t going away I would not be too concerned about their online strategy just yet.

You summed up their woes perfectly - they sacrificed their integrity to promote an ideology and now they have found out that idealists don't buy ads or subscriptions. Chris Wysocki's last blog post..Stop breathing, the CO you exhale causes global warming

I find it incredibly sad t hat newspapers are going down the drain. I guess I shouldn’t quite dismiss them yet but I’m afraid that’s how it’s looking. I mean, let’s face it; technically, newspapers ARE obsolete- you don’t NEED them to get your news. But what will we have come to if they truly disappear? It will be as much an iconic loss as it is just plain sad. Great post, hopefully it will get people to care!
