My online news experience so far

Following my post here a week ago about supporting journalism I subscribed to the Washington Post, the New York Times and The Age.

A week in, I rank the Washington Post ahead of the others. The iPhone App is far superior. The Age does not have an iPhone App –   this is a let down. The NYT App is good but not the best.

The experience matters when accessing news. App design is like print newspaper design – navigating is key along with content you can trust.

I am liking having access to quality content on my phone.

Overall, the experience is a reminder of how inappropriate the print medium is for delivering news.
