News, early and often
I attended a meeting Friday with the person who is leading the way in our move to the net.
He told us that we need to get 3 news updates online by 9am, 3 more by noon, and 3 more by 3pm everyday, to quench the publics appetite for news updates early and often.
To accomplish this we will need to make some staffing changes, but soon, you will start to see many more updates throughout the day.
He also told us that we need to produce at least one slideshow a day. This will also require us to make changes to the way we do things, but change is coming here too.
He told us we were ahead of many other papers in other areas, like multimedia packages, specialty pages like the politics page, new page we are working on, featuring information on the area's beaches, and the way we cover high school football.
Bottom line? While much has been improved, we still have a way to go as we improve the way we deliver the news, everyday.
