Our new page makes it easier than ever to get the news you want WHEN you want it. The bottom screen has different categories (like World News, Entertainment, Sports, Politics, Business and more) - you can scroll down the thumbnails on the right hand side for all the stories within that category.Although one of my friends will continue reading her down-home community newspaper that comes out once a week, she discontinued her local/national newspaper. The other employee only gets his news online now and he gets it all here. I asked my friends why and here are some of the printable reasons they came up with.
Reasons given for using the online versus print news were: 1. Convenience – you can sit down at your computer, click on national news and listen while answering email or other computer tasks 2. Ease – it is so much easier to read the news online whenever I want to, no looking for the paper and no gathering it up from wherever my husband put it. 3. Current - Its way more up to date – the news is up to the minute, instead of up until deadline last night. 4. Less Advertising - My newspaper kept getting more advertising and less news – you literally had to look around all the ads to find the news. 5. Less Mess - no newspapers to recycle (although what are we going to wrap our fish scraps in and wash our windows with now?)
