washington post website

I agree with Tom Grubisich about how the site doesn't do enough to try and help the community, and if that is what Katharine Weymouth meant when she said "engagement" then the site has failed in that respect. However, I don't agree that they need to be like a facebook, which Mr. Grubisich was comparing the site to the entire article. If people want to visit a sit like facebook, visit facebook. there are plenty of sites like that all over the web, a newspaper can't make their site like that, it just isn't practical, they can make links to it, like a lot of sites do, but they can't make their site a pseudo facebook.

  1. It's interesting how we use "engaged" in academia vs. "engaged" in terms of getting people involved.

    What about the "business" of the Post?
