The Future Of New York Times, In Situ
Robert Scoble went to the New York Times (NYSE: NYT) R&D lab (run under Michael Zimbalist) and did a bunch of videos about the various products, services and devices the team there is working on. The details on some of these are here, and the videos done by Scoble on his N95, are embedded below:
By the way, NYT launched its TimesMachine historical archives service today, which is a service that has full page scans of all the NYT newspapers from 1851-1922 (the public domain archives).
