Call out to the NY Times

Monday, July 16, 2007 by Dave Winer.

I'm a regular listener of the NY Times TechTalk podcast. It's well done and usually interesting. The last few weeks they've had a segment on the iPhone, and last week reviewed some of the websites that work especially well on the device.  

I was hoping they'd mention the nytimesriver site, after all, they write for the Times, and presumably read the Times, and since they all have iPhones, well I hoped they'd overlook any potential conflicts and tell their listeners who very likely read the Times too, and would want to on their mobile devices, including of course the iPhone. Alas, no mention.  

I keep wondering how this great site can remain such a secret for so long. News.com gave it tons of flow, but that's dropping off now. I'll keep thinking of ways of spreading the word.
