top UK papers use of web features
Last week, the Bivings Report released an analysis of the Top 100 newspapers in America and their use of the web. Others have since done the same analysis on the top newspaper sites in other countries, including Brazil, Denmark and Italy providing useful and interesting comparisons to be made.
Below is a chart showing the results of my own analysis (source xls Download uknewspapers_interactivity.xls w/ notes) of the websites of the 11 leading daily national newspaper titles in the UK, as determined by the Audit Bureau of Circulation (ABC) figures for the 6 months ending 14 July 2006, as reported by the Times Online. Those papers are, listed in order below:
The Sun http://www.thesun.co.uk/
Daily Mail http://www.dailymail.co.uk
Mirror http://www.mirror.co.uk
Daily Telegraph http://www.telegraph.co.uk
Daily Express http://www.express.co.uk
Daily Star http://www.dailystar.co.uk
The Times http://www.thetimes.co.uk
Financial Times http://www.ft.com
Daily Record http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk
Guardian http://www.guardian.co.uk
Independent http://www.independent.co.uk/
(Please note: The following is an update of the original graph as I was sent some links to some harder to find examples of various web features on the main Guardian website. The updated graph shows that the Guardian has all of the web features possible within the Bivings criteria.)
Interesting chart, that's some useful data (though when I download your xls it seems to be blank?). Daily Mail does have video, incidentally: http://qurl.com/6hhy6

India-born entrepreneurs empower US voters
Shukoor Ahmed ran for a seat in the Maryland House of Delegates in 1998, after coming to America a decade earlier from Hyderabad, India. Campaigning door-to-door, he was surprised so many voters did not know who represented them!
After his race ended slightly short of victory, he took advantage of his Master’s degree in Computer Technology and Political Science to build StateDemocracy.org, a website he launched in 2001 to connect citizens and lawmakers. His website’s motto encapsulated its mission:
