Schonfeld: “That clutters the page, and leaves less room for other headlines. I want that page to maximize the number of different stories I can explore about different subjects, not different points of view on the same subject. – When I want to see what the buzz is and all the different points of view about the most important stories, I go to Techmeme or Digg. … The New York Times wants to have it both ways by jamming its news filter beneath its own stories and making readers squint to figure out which is which.”
RWW: “This is a step in the right direction. A small step, but a good step nonetheless. Hopefully, the next move to be open will involve NYT sharing the metrics about how many users opt to use Times Extra and – given the options – where they choose to go for their news.”

pC: “What the NYT is doing with Times Extra is simply expanding the newspaper site’s existing aggregation feature which is handled by Blogrunner, out of its pen within the site’s Technology section. Nevertheless, it’s a big step for the NYT and represents the evolution of its approach to content.“
