Yesterday we mentioned about the war of words between NYT’s digital side and WSJ.com….now today some more interesting new projects scheduled to go live at NYTimes.com this fall, as mentioned in this AdAge story. Among them, Times Extra, which will be links to stories from NYT competitors, and will even occupy space on NYTimes.com homepage, a huge leap for the paper’s rather cloistered journalistic attitude of lore. From the sound of it, looks like they will modify BlogRunner, which currently only runs on NYT’s tech page online, to run across the site. NYT bought BlogRunner two years ago.
