A Lesson From the Granddaddy of Digital Publishing

摘要

Long before I was in the business of writing about digital content, I was a big fan of digital content. More specifically, I was a fan of Slate. Founded in 1996, the "daily magazine on the web" is practically the grandfather of digital publishing. Backed by The Washington Post Co., Slate has long incorporated the best of traditional journalism with more bloglike sensibilities. From long-form, investigative journalism to quick, breaking news blurbs to Dear Prudie-Slate's answer to Dear Abby-the site seamlessly blends the more familiar aspects of your local newspaper with new media.
