Webmasters at CNN Make the Right Choice on 9/11

SUMMARY: No summary available.
This morning when I was surfing news sites for ideas for our site redesign, I saw the first news on the World Trade Center attacks.

We won't be publishing Sherpa today. It would be crass to talk about marketing at a time like this. The phones are silent in the office, because we are in downtown Washington DC and nobody can get through. Lots of people are emailing over though to check on us. Thanks -- we're all fine here.

I'd like to add one note to applaud the Webmasters at CNN. They've done a fine job this morning to keep their site up and running so that people can get access to the news. They quickly took down their regular site, and replaced it with a "lite" version, so that it would tax the servers less, and allow more of the public to access information on the attacks. Good work in a time of stress.
