Morrie the Toupee Salesman

While working at digg, there was a lot of talk about “discovery” - finding interesting stuff for people. Today we have the news that traffic to the New York Times website from Google has “doubled” since the ungating. Also I note that nytimes.com has passed digg in Alexa ratings, which just reminds me (sadly, regretfully) of the heady days when we passed them.

It turns out “discovery” looks a lot like “journalism.”
