By Ben Gerst October 30, 2008 6:14 pm October 30, 2008 6:14 pm Happy Birthday to us! We launched comments on articles one year ago today. So it’s only fitting — and with much excitement — that we announce the launch of the New York Times Community API, which allows you to access comments in several ways. The first article ever to feature comments was in the Opinion section — and it had 17 comments

By Suzanne Vega June 18, 2008 9:10 pm June 18, 2008 9:10 pm A couple of weekends ago I began what I call my “bread-and-butter” touring season. I had two shows, one in Long Island and one in Saratoga, N.Y. I had a raging head cold, but made it through and came home to check on a few days worth of e-mails. At first I couldn’t tell what was going on. As I went to access my account, I kept seeing my o
Each month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics gathers 84,000 prices in about 200 categories — like gasoline, bananas, dresses and garbage collection — to form the Consumer Price Index, one measure of inflation. It’s among the statistics that the Federal Reserve considered when it cut interest rates on Wednesday. The categories are weighted according to an estimate of what the average American spends,
By Louise Story March 9, 2008 11:19 pm March 9, 2008 11:19 pm In my article in Monday’s Times, “To Aim Ads, Web Is Keeping Closer Eye on What You Click,” I worked with comScore to develop a new measure for Web companies: how much data they can collect from users. On the Internet, companies are typically ranked by how many different people visit their sites in a given month. And when Microsoft anno
By Adam Kaplan March 5, 2008 1:43 pm March 5, 2008 1:43 pm I work in the NYTimes.com feeds team. We handle retrieving, parsing and transforming incoming feeds from whatever strange proprietary format our partners choose to give us into something that our CMS can digest. As you can imagine, we deal with a huge amount of text processing. To handle all of these transformations as efficiently as possi
By Saul Hansell February 14, 2008 5:09 pm February 14, 2008 5:09 pm Google has always had a love-hate relationship with advertising. Its power and wealth come from the $16 billion a year of advertising that it sells. Yet on its most important pages, the results from its Web search engine, it has limited ads to nothing more garish than a dozen words of text. That is about to change. On Thursday, Go
When I wrote last week, about the apparent victory of Blu-ray discs over HD DVD, there was a deluge of comments from readers. Those that agreed with my take on things, let’s say, were a rather small — if well-informed — minority. One of the many assertions that readers found objectionable, was the idea that any standard for high-definition discs is better than a format war. HD DVD’s defenders list
By Saul Hansell January 16, 2008 12:46 pm January 16, 2008 12:46 pm UPDATED /16, 3:22 PM If the issue behind our debate this week about copyright and piracy in the digital age is how much control creators should have over what happens to their works, one of the crucial extensions to that question is the matter of fair use. Remixing is a key part of today’s culture, as people use commercial music a
By Saul Hansell November 29, 2007 8:02 pm November 29, 2007 8:02 pm Verizon Wireless got a lot of attention Tuesday for its vague announcement about offering open access to its network. But a much geekier announcement today may well be more important. The company said it would use a technology standard called LTE, for Long Term Evolution, for its next generation of devices. And this could do a lot
Ignore Orkut, OpenSocial, Yahoo Mash and Yahoo 360. Google and Yahoo have come up with new and very similar plans to respond to the challenge from MySpace and Facebook: They hope to turn their e-mail systems and personalized home page services (iGoogle and MyYahoo) into social networks. Web-based e-mail systems already contain much of what Facebook calls the social graph — the connections between
