The big media news yesterday

is that the New York Times will stop charging for TimesSelect, offering the whole paper free online. They say the subscription program was a success, but that they noticed the potential of advertising growth to be greater than subscription growth (which is what most said two years ago, but whatever – better late than never). The key to this, of course, is that the Times still does reporting, unlike most regional or city newspapers that have largely abdicated this function to the wire services.

Privacy:

The New York Times has published an excellent story summing up the many issues surrounding privacy on the net, by Jeffrey Rosen.
