The technical, trivial and interesting things I find

Here’s a tidbit that will likely make your organizational productivity seem wildly inadequate: NYmag.com publishes new material every six minutes. Every six minutes.

Moss later clarified: That’s every six minutes during working hours. “It starts at that speed at 8:30 in the morning,” Moss says, “ending about 7.” The rate then lightens considerably from 7 in the evening until the next morning (though “we still publish 8 or 9 things overnight”).

— Adam Moss: NY Mag publishes new content every six minutes

Fun fact: The NYTimes publishes approximately 1,500 articles a day - that includes stories from Reuters, AP, etc.

24hrs / 1500 articles = 1 article every minute (well, 58 seconds).

If you include the 300 approximate blog posts per day that goes down to 1 new item every 48 seconds.

NYT FTW! (unless I have yet again screwed up the math)
