Washington Post replaces e-mail newsletter with blog, RSS

by billso on Monday, 5 February 2007

Rob Pegoraro announced this morning that his newspaper, the Washington Post, will replace the Fast Forward newsletter with a blog called Faster Forward.

Fast Forward was started as an e-mail newsletter in 1995. The Post’s mail system couldn’t support a mailing list, so the writers used an external e-mail address.

The article about the blog also includes a brief discussion of RSS, which the Post is using on its web sites. See my earlier posts on http://billso.com/2007/01/23/whats-all-this/ and http://billso.com/2006/09/23/what-is-rss-2/
