Article lengths...
Article lengths are getting longer. With as many articles as we carry, this slows page load times. Since I read everything that's posted, I suppose it's good for my education, but it's very time consuming. Each article contains a link to the original, so all we need to do here is post the meat. The repetition, explanation, spin, and discussion will still be available at the original, which anyone can go read with a single click. Short, punchy excerpts are better than the whole thing. Someone suggested that articles over a certain length dump to the holding tank for further editing. I think that might be a good idea, though it'll delay appearance, sometimes up to a day. Comments?Headlines Try to keep headlines to a single display line. Please use either the original headline from the article, or reword it so it's descriptive of the article content. "What the hell?" doesn't describe the article content. Links Sometimes we forget to put the original link in. That means somebody's got to chase it down. I know usually it's an accident, but try to remember... Posted by: Fred 2004-04-16 |
