Readable Guardian
- TorKlingberg 16y agoReally neat, but I doubt it will last long when the lawyers find out. The arrows to switch articles are not obvious though. Maybe bin the fade-out.
- justinl 16y agoIt’s made using the Guardian’s Content API: http://www.guardian.co.uk/open-platform http://www.guardian.co.uk/open-platform
- retube 16y agowow! I never knew of this - although had noticed they serve up entire articles and not just headlines with their rss feeds. A strategy almost exactly opposite to The Times.
- mattmanser 16y agoThe Guardian and Observer operate at a massive loss being held by a foundation trust. According to wiki a loss of £18.9m in 2005 going to £50m 2006, who dares guess what kind of loss it operates under now. It's shored up by profitable publications within the same trust. Alas, this isn't a long term viable strategy to be followed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Guardian#Ownership http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Guardian#Ownership for more info. The Guardian and the BBC actually leave commercial papers in a bit of a tricky situation with regard to digital strategy here in the UK as they can both give their content away free without any regard to the problems of generating income, as they have guaranteed sources (trust money and license payer money).

- Groxx 16y agoVery very nice, and I particularly like the length displays with the categories. I do agree with TorKlingberg though, the arrows should somehow be made more visible to at least newcomers. Maybe make them visible to start, and fade slowly until you end up with the current behavior? I admit that it's nicer reading without them, so I'd hate to lose that entirely.
- merraksh 16y agoMaking the arrow keys usable makes it even nicer. Well done!
