Indy kills link to its blogs

Author: Andrew Grant-Adamson Category: Blogs, Journalism, Newspapers, Online

Sunday
Jan 28, 2007

At last the Independent has done the decent thing and hidden its blogs. The link has gone from the front page in the past two or three days (I have got so bored with this I stopped checking every day).

The most recent post was dated January 18 but that was a revamp of a post which went up before Christmas. It is still there if you know the url.

So is this a tactical retreat while the paper gets its blogs right? It would be strange if the Indy was to give up blogging given all the recent evidence of the traffic generated by blogs for MSM sites.

The gadgets vidcast (see my post of January 16) also gone.
