If not for Matt Thompson, I doubt there would be a Texas Tribune (well technically speaking there’s still not one, but I’m assured that there will be soon). It was Matt who got me thinking about the idea of context, and the lack of innovation in news presentation since the advent of large-scale content managment systems. He was nice enough to spend some time with our team in Austin recently. It was terrific.
This post represents a really good summary of a lot of Matt’s thinking. Highly recommended.
