The big change is that the embedded Video is traditionally off to the left-side of the page. In this redesign the question is how to determine where within the text they're spread out.
Compare the design to the original article to see what I mean.

The big question in my mind is where the ads will go?
- danso 14y agoYes, and related to that, I wonder if single-page view will now be the default? And if so, if the backend has a way to manage the allocation of ads for the extra-long rails in indepth stories.
- donohoe 14y agoI suspect it will not (I hope it is) be single-page. If there is any ad management I suspect it will be handled client-side based on interaction. Definitely lots of potential to do justice to both ads and content (and ultimately the user).
- albertsun 14y agoRight now single page view is the default and I believe that is the plan. (From an NYT employee who has access to the prototype but did not work on it at all.)
