Moving your newsroom workflow to the Web
Daniel Bachhuber said: When done correctly, switching to a Web-first workflow gets content published quicker and more effectively.
The pros to moving to a Web CMS are apparent. It is simply more efficient for your 24/7 online operation to base your work around a Web CMS. Reporters, with their own usernames and set privileges, can access the CMS, work with their story and even practice writing headlines, tagging, etc. It also makes it much quicker for an editor to get the story online when it’s timely and valuable — all they have to do is press a button now, rather than Add New Post by scratch, when they’re done editing.

The why and how of a real names policy on comments
Daniel Bachhuber said: Well-argued. If nothing else, requiring real names for commenting is a solid step for raising the level of discourse and trust within a community.
Newspapers long ago stopped allowing anonymous letters to the editor. Ethical editorial page directors go to great lengths to ensure the author of a letter is who he says he is. There is no small measure of credibility tied to using your real name when expressing an opinion or stating what you believe to be facts.
