A New York Times Christmas in September

Well, hallefuckinglujah, the Times announces that they will stop charging for their website. Don't let Monk complain that he didn't get anything for Christmas, because Santa came early this year!

Maybe I can even get my chicken fried rice today, after all!! :)

That really is awesome news! How many times have I gone to their site & only gotten to see a snippet of an article, while the rest was reserved only for paying subscribers.

Paying for porn I can accept, but for news? That's a little hard for me to do.

LOL Paying for porn? I won't even do that either.

Isn't the Times a bit behind the times actually? It seems like all the other newspapers realized this wasn't going well about a year ago and went back to free online access (w/ registration). Esp. when most of the stuff is syndicated for free the next day anyway, I never understood it in the first place.
