The NYTimes 4 point checklist for digital success

Here’s a quickie:

The New York Times is integrating this four point approach to it’s digital publishing success:

• Presenting a greater cross-section of what the Times publishes spanning culture, opinion, and sports;
• Using that fuller toolbox of typography, thumbnails and visuals to better express the range of stories offered;
• Presenting a finite list of stories so readers have a sense of completion
• Combining a select list of outside stories with Times content

This should be a four-point checklist for any news publisher.

For the first time, I see a newspaper-created product that seems utterly comfortable with the digital medium.
