Poll Results- Would You Pay If Your Local Online Newspaper Charged
I ran this post and poll back on February 2nd. here are the results.
In light of the new iPad newspaper “The Daily” which just launched and is charging for it’s content I wonder how many of you would ever consider paying for your local newspaper’s online content if they decided to do away with free content and went to a subscription based website.
Local newspapers cover news such as tax issues, zoning, and political races and if they didn’t exist where you would get that information?
I can tell you that even though many people tell me they check out GMG before they check out the GDT, we don’t come close to covering the important stories that keep politicians honest and I have no intention to ever try to.
God bless the remaining newspaper people that still labor to bring us the important stories even though they have to endure pay cuts and layoffs. Newspapers are vital to our way of life. I hope they can figure out a way to keep on keepin on.
Here are the results-
What types of features in a daily online newspaper would make you be willing to pay or not?

Did You Know (Spring)

Spring really is right around the corner. You can see the snow and ice are just about gone from the shoreline, rocks and rooftops, and some ground is even exposed in places. The Vernal Equinox will occur on March 20th at 23:21 (11:21 pm), 28 days from now. An equinox occurs twice a year (spring and fall), when the tilt of the Earth’s axis is inclined neither away from nor towards the Sun, the center of the Sun being in the same plane as the Earth’s equator.  On a day of the equinox, the center of the Sun spends a roughly equal amount of time above and below the horizon at every location on the Earth, night and day being of roughly the same length. This photo really has nothing to do with spring, but was a new vantage point I discovered to view the lighthouse from, and thought it would be new to others too.Â

It’s all fun when you are building the lobster Trap Tree and there are a bunch of people lending a hand. Dismantling it and delivering the traps long after the fanfare has subsided shows dedication.
Huge props to the boys working in the snow and cold to finish up a job well done!
