Ethan Marcotte: The Boston Globe →
Ethan Marcotte, who was an important member of a team full of important members, describing the anticipation leading up to the responsive overhauling of BostonGlobe.com:
It’s been kind of a weird experience, talking publicly for the better part of this year about a site that hadn’t yet launched. I mean, I was—and still am—incredibly proud of the small contributions I made, of the talented team I collaborated with, but still: talking about a site that hasn’t launched yet? There’s some part of me that’s felt, well, odd about that. What if people’s expectations aren’t met? What if we can’t deliver? What if the Internet gets hit by an exploding unicorn and we somehow don’t finish the project because NO MORE INTERNET YOU GUYS….
While I’m impossibly proud of the new Globe site of today, I’m most excited about where it’ll be tomorrow.
It’s important to note that BostonGlobe.com is a spinoff of Boston.com, and the spinoff is a subscription-only site ($3.99/week). As Frank Chimero points out, which would you choose?
