If you want good stuff, visit the blogs

Mark Potts recently weighed in something I've noticed for a while -- the interesting content on newspaper Web sites is on their blogs, not their news pages. (Click here for link to Mark's post.)

I've commented on this before (click here for link) but it raises another issue -- why do newspapers insist on placing blogs in a separate section? Why, if you're publishing a blog covering sports wouldn't you find it in the sports section of the Web site?

The New York Times Web site, which is one of the better ones out there, is a prime example. (See screen shot to the left.)

One of life's mysteries, I suppose.
