I would also probably buy the E-Edition out of preference, but for a number of factors.<br /><br />In the first instance the main articles from both papers are available online and for free, the advantages of the area where they are published online in this way are that you can comment on the articles and advertisement blocking software works reliably. <br /><br />The full E-Edition free for the Times and paid for, for the Gazette, has all the advertisements, which isn’t that bad, but the way it appears online isn’t consistent and reliable. Often pages that work ok on your computer won’t work on your smart phone and the site seems to make it very difficult for you to sign on once you have joined.<br /><br />Frankly the bottom line here is lack the confidence in the newspaper’s use of itc to pay anything for internet editions. <br />Michael Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499435016469020417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-46074376459471533462012-10-02T08:09:03.352+01:002012-10-02T08:09:03.352+01:00I haven't bought a Thanet Times for years.
