Syndicated by the New York Times

I can only dream of having my content syndicated by the New York Timesas in New York Times Syndicates ReadWriteWeb, but that would be great and it appears to be happening, but just for the bigger blogs – the one’s that are almost of the verge of being magazines, like TechCrunch, ReadWriteWeb and VentureBeat, to name a few:

“..This is also further vindication that blogs are increasingly being accepted as mainstream news and analysis providers. Indeed the NYT is beefing up its own tech blog, Bits – it’s being “more prominently displayed, highlighting its role as the main spot to find breaking tech news and analysis on NYTimes.com.”

Along with ReadWriteWeb, The New York Times will also syndicate content from our friends at VentureBeat and GigaOm. The New York Times re-design is now live, although syndicated content won’t go live until October.

Andy Plesser from Beet.TV had the scoop on this story, along with a video interview with Vindu Goel, deputy technology editor at The New York Times.”

“…It’s interesting to see mainstream media outlets like the Times, the Washington Post and CNN reaching out to blogs to enhance their coverage. The Washington Post has taken this idea a little further with its newly launched Political Browser website, which the newspaper says is intended to be a one-stop aggregator of sorts for political news and commentary from anywhere on the Web — even competing sites. And Andy Plesser at BeetTV raises an interesting issue: will their additional Google juice lead to sites like the New York Times and Washington Post getting traffic for the posts they aggregate, rather than the originating site?”

So the future of blogs, some blogs, up the food chain, is to become syndicated contents for Mainstream Media Newspapers and Magazines.

I’m glad I blog a lot, probably I blog more than average.
