Sunday Business Post launches daily website

In a very smart move, the Sunday Business Post has re-launched its website as The Daily Business Post . It’s a nice clean design with a mix of news and comment.

The Daily Business Post

Updated between 7am and 6pm Monday to Friday, the website is one part of a range of new digital services, which includes iPad and iPhone apps.

Articles from the Sunday Business Post print edition are still on the site, but have been put behind a paywall with a range of subscription options. SBP content is updated at 12am each Sunday.

Heading up this move is SBP Technology Editor Adrian Weckler who has been appointed to the position of Digital Editor.

I think it’s safe to say the Monday Business Post is a thing of the past.

Sun rising over Dún Laoghaire this morning

Lovely, mild morning in Dublin. Quick photo I took on my iPhone on the way to work at Seapoint:

Read All About It … some links of interest 3 November 2011

A few interesting pieces that are worth reading:

First up, anyone working in a media organisation should read remarks made by the chairman of the New York Times, Arthur Sulzberger, earlier this week at LSE. He talks about the digital transformation taking place.

Next, a summary of guardian.co.uk’s new community forum called Notice. HuffPo’s Garrett Goodman outlines the eight key things you should know about it.

Finally, the Guardian Technology Blog tackles a question I too have wondered about: Will HTML5 replace native apps?
