Re: NY Times Retires 'Times People' But Doesn't Actually Tell The Users
GOt a comment from Kristin Mason of the NY Times who clarifies what happened witj Times People:
Hi Stowe, we have removed the TimesPeople toolbar and TimesPeople recommend feature, but TimesPeople profile pages are still live. They can be found by going to www.nytimes.com/timespeople and then clicking on the “View my profile & activity” link in the left corner. In the coming months, we will be enhancing and expanding our community offerings across NYTimes.com, and TimesPeople profiles will be integrated into those offerings. In the meantime, we have a number of sharing options on the site. We apologize for any confusion, and we’re working to make sure that this information is available to other users as well.

Manager, Communication, The New York Times
I wonder if they will open up the network, so I can share materials from other sources? One issue with Times People was that inward focus. Secondly, I would like a richer curatorial capability, like finding stories than many of my connections have read, recommended, and commented on.
I look forward to seeing these new initiatives.
