An idea a day:
87. Use reddit/digg style for displaying news articles in newspaper website, like appledaily.
Using this style, users could vote articles up or down, causing them to appear more or less prominently on the newspaper website. Other than letting the agency to choose what may interest the mass, the mass could adjust by itself.

For super busy people, this could let them to use minimal time to browse the smallest number of articles, in order to get in touch with the public taste and trends.

For small potatoe reporters, yours articles may have a greater chance to be the big/bold headlines, before you get into high position or famous.

This could also be a everyday market research for the newspaper agency, gauging the favourite of it's reader or audience, for better marketing work and more focus/clear target group for advertising purpose.

Low rating columists could be laid off, and the performance of every writers could be more effectively, systemetically and scientifically be measured, agencies could now be more easily to apply the GE performance-based management style. The salary scale could also be performance based, for popular writers, the $$ is more easy to earn and vice-versa.

In this way, all writers will think more creatively to increase the responiveness of it's reader, by evoking passion, feelings, call for actions, other than just spoon-feeding information to the mass.
