Why Not Personalize the DM News Web Site?
Why Not Personalize the DM News Web Site?I was just catching up on my DM News reading today and noticed Tad Clarke's editorial ("All the News That Fits," Feb. 1) about the reader who requested a "news-only" format on your Web site. I personally like access to everything. But have you considered allowing visitors to personalize the Web site or, offering different versions?
I believe certain search engines let you do that for news coverage. I'm not a Web designer or programmer so I don't know how this would be done, but I bet it wouldn't be too difficult. With everybody's time so pinched the way it is, to have a few well-considered options available would be much appreciated. And, from a bottom-line perspective, a few good options might increase your traffic even more.
