You may now go about your regular business. Instead, you should continue using the here, and the links it generates look like this:Įx=1292389200&en=e32072d786623ac1&ei=5090&partner=rssuserland They look like they work, but they’re worse than useless. I don’t know what the point of these ridiculous bait-and-switch URLs is, but today’s lesson is obvious: don’t use them. A banner headline is typically one that stretches across a newspaper’s front page or website. I’ve been using these URLs for months on the assumption that they were permanent links, and every one of them is now broken and useless. Here’s what the coded URL looks like for the Risen article:Įi=5094&en=c7596fe0d4798785&hp=&ex=1134795600&partner=homepageīut guess what? It turns out these coded URLs don’t work: after a few days they redirect you to the Times archive, just like uncoded URLs.
Hooray! Then, last year, the Times began providing those special coded URLs directly for its front page articles so you didn’t have to go through any special hoops to generate them.
This makes the Times undesirable as a long-term blog source, so a couple of years ago Dave Winer negotiated a deal with the Times to provide specially coded URLs that would last forever.
NYTIMES FRONT PAGE FEB11 2016 FULL
If you click it now, it takes you to the NYT archives, where you have to pay to see the full article. For example, here’s the URL for James Risen’s December 16 story that exposed the NSA’s domestic spying program: FROM 59.99 While based in New York City, the New York Times has a worldwide influence and readership, ranking 18th in the world by circulation, and 3rd in the United States. URLs for NYT articles have a standard form. Forty-two memorable front pages from the past year, picked by editors on the news desk who oversee the content, design and production of. What follows is some high grade blog wonkery, but if you care about creating permanent links to Times articles in blog entries, read on.
NYT LINKS….I am annoyed with the New York Times.
