The way I see it going is 'newspapers' becoming less and less like newspapers and more like versatile digital publishers. The revenue from print sales and print ads is obviously shrinking (it will come back to *some* extent in 09/10). So while they're building digital ad networks, there will be moves into e-commerce, paid-for services like dating, games, even maybe search -- basically all the things that successful web companies do, and not just news.

The FT has the specialist content to be able to go down the freemium route. The Guardian also has strength in depth in certain sectors - Media on Mondays etc so I could see them going down this route once they stop printing copies.

It's also interesting to note just how large the *global* audiences are for online papers now based in the UK. Jan 09, Guardian 30million and Telegraph 26million. Unique users. The Telegraph was up over 100% year on year.

The Guardian's move today will increase those numbers.

These are success stories.
