Sunday Times price increase
September 24, 2010
Not only is Rupert Murdoch trying to make us pay to read his online Sunday Times content (no link inserted to paid content!), he has also raised the price of the print version too.
I am no economist, but I am sure I heard once raising prices in a falling market doesn’t usually work.
Come on Rupert, let’s not have a repeat of myspace.
I do have an account with myspace, but having just popped across to have a look at it, I have noticed they have removed the last logged in info. From looking at my own site, I would guess I last logged in back in February. Which I suppose would look bad as it is September now.
What is worse for Rupert, while I am having trouble remembering when I last logged into his social network (and it didnt even occur to me to try and link this blog to the blog function in myspace, off to have a look if that is easy to achieve in a minute), is that my Facebook page gets visited most days.
