The Telegraph is launching a bit of a public awareness campaign to talk about some of the things the paper [...]

Well OK, online pretty much every year is a ‘beta test’ but for the Telegraph 2009 will be especially so.
We have a number of major projects on the horizon - including a complete replacement of both our print and Web content management systems. That transition, which is planned for late summer, will require us to [...]

Sen. John McCain was in New Hampshire for a rally this morning - but this is not about McCain, or really even about the upcoming election. However, it is about politics and real or perceived bias.

From the AP: Your staff has obviously studied the material we provided on Member Choice and has a good handle on it. Suffice to say we also are watching the feedback from members closely. See below and thanks again.

Given the shrinking news hole many of us are experiencing, we are using less and less AP content, and paying more and more for the privilege. The Telegraph recently moved from a four-section to a two-section format, loaded with local news in the front section. As a result, we are now using only the top two or three world/nation stories of the day, along with a package of briefs.

The last question in tonight’s presidential debate came from “Peggy” in Amherst, NH.
“What don’t you know and how will you learn it.”
So - who knows Peggy? Who is she - email dkiesow(at)nashuatelegraph.com or comment below.

The Telegraph’s ‘data editor’ David Brooks has started pulling together some details on the proposed Broad Street parkway project and applying them to a map for easy reference. So far we have a list of homes that may/may not be removed along the route as well as a growing collection of ground-level and aerial photos [...]

Caught a new ad from Budweiser during the Pats game today which gave mention of Merrimack and other ‘local’ towns that are part of the Bud family. Here is the aerial photo used for Merrimack. Trying to figure out where this was taken - ostensibly I would have assumed along DW Highway near the river [...]

A fun audio slideshow from Corey Perrine who spent Friday afternoon at the Hillsborough County Fair.

You may notice a slightly different look to the Telegraph blogs today. In fact, if you are visiting on Labor Day weekend - you may notice a new look, then the old one, then a new one again as the Internet catches up with the address of our new blog server.
The address is the same: [...]

It has been far too long since I updated this blog - in some part due to a very busy Spring conference schedule.
Thankfully, Summer approaches and I hope to get back to blogging a bit more often.

Matthew Ingram posts a comment from an AP staffer regarding the AP/Google partnership:
“AP’s state wires, which include member content, are not licensed to Google and other online aggregators.
As a result, only a tiny fraction of the national and international stories sold by AP to aggregators originated with members of the cooperative – typically scoops [...]

Apparently someone out there (besides Facebook) does not like us.
Check out the review of the Telegraph on Yahoo local In brief the writer says the Telegraph is "not a news paper, more like a rumor mill."
I happen to know the reviewer in this case is the relative of an individual who was the subject [...]
