The Way Forward for News?

The Evening Edi­tion is a news web­site pub­lished daily dur­ing the week at 5pm Pacific time. The site was devel­oped by Mule Design who typ­i­cally do client web work but as this write up on Read​WriteWeb​.com details, they’re doing for fun what news sites can’t do to save themselves.

Evening Edi­tion brings you today’s world news with­out push noti­fi­ca­tions. It has no streams or feeds. It doesn’t do [BREAKING] or [UPDATING]. It’s deliv­ered by web­site to your device of choice every week­day at 5 p.m., and it’s just the right amount of read­ing for the sub­way ride from office to home.

The way for­ward per­haps? There’s some­thing in this that could work for a vari­ety of sub­jects or niche top­ics. Almost like if I held all my posts for a day in draft mode and then pub­lished them at 5pm.
