A few days ago the New York Times discontinued the New York Times Front Page podcast. Help me find a replacement. I'm looking for a short (5-10 minutes) podcast that gives a quick overview of the news of the day.

After a lifetime of being indifferent toward crossword puzzles, I've been on a real puzzle bender lately. I used the New York Times iPad crossword app today. One thing that stumps me: How do people get times in the two-minute range?

Why are there glum photos of stock traders on bad trading days? After all, traders make money on trades, whether the stock goes up or down.

Until
nytimes.com comes up with a family plan, I will not be subscribing. Where can I get my thoughtful, eclectic, comprehensive news mix in one place?

Cost aside, should I swap an iPod Touch + NYTimes app with a Kindle + NYTimes subscription? My iPod Touch is too distracting; a Kindle would be less so. On the other hand, I love the free NYT app.

In today's NYTimes
House and Home section, there is a picture of a desk table that fits perfectly with a couch. Is there a style or name for this kind of table? Where would I find one?

How should I be reading the NYTimes? I subscribed last month and I love it, but I only end up reading about five to ten percent of the paper every week.

Anyone know of a firefox extension/greasemonkey script that would cause all nytimes.com articles to automatically open in the "single page" format. I read the whole paper online, and it's really annoying to have to click the "single page" button for every article that's longer than one page. Alternately, how hard would it be to write such an extension/script?

is elvis mitchell doing regular movie reviews in print anywhere now that he's left the
new york times? i assume he's still on NPR's weekend edition (which i never listen to), and i've seen him on PBS and (i think) CNN, but i miss the written reviews. my inability to find information on google leads me to believe that he isn't doing print reviews anymore, although it may simply be that he's writing for a publication with no on-line presence. that's okay--i'd probably subscribe to something that carried him regularly.

Why do the most professional news web sites so often - and
increasingly often - include bad or wrong links? I'm talking NYT, WP, Daily Telegraph and Google News et al. (
For a recent example, click on the Researching the New Joy of Sex highlight in today's Observer and you get this.)
