Tune Your News

April 24th, 2007

David Weinberger makes an interesting point (and teaches me something new).

I’ ve been showing a screen capture of USA Today’s redesigned site. It includes a button you can click on to give a Digg-like thumbs up to an article. Great, except, um, where’s the thumb down? We want to be able to say to the Britney or Justin or We-Should-Teach-Our-Students-Judo article “No no no no no no no no.” We want to tune our news.

That’s very cool – I’ll have to go play with USA Today a bit. I love that everyone is trying to accommodate the user more with their web designs!
