There’s been lots of commentary on future of the the newspaper business over the past couple weeks. But, the point of this post is not to throw my thoughts on the subject out there — it’s just to highlight a cool web site involving newspapers that Spencer Rascoff, Zillow’s VP of Marketing, showed me the other day. You can view a snapshot of the front page for many newspapers around the world and quickly browse through them. The site certainly does not cover ALL newspapers — if you click on the Africa tab, you’ll notice only two newspapers and none in South Africa. I’m not sure why papers such as the Cape Times aren’t included, but I’ll let my colleague David Gibbons (who grew up in South Africa) figure that out.
