Rosecrans Baldwin and Andrew Womack, editors of The Morning News, a fine site you should all read every day, have kindly honored this site in their 2005 Editors’ Awards for Online Excellence.

Favorite Writing About Design

We admitted that we’re web geeks; well, before we were web geeks, we were news geeks, and in particular, newspaper geeks. The only thing better than reading a paper at the end of the day with our feet up is reading a paper at the end of the day with our feet up and a bottle of Lagavulin on the table. Newspapers are dying? Over our dead bodies, and only when people like Mark Friesen at Newsdesigner stop publishing thoughtful talk about the business.


Wow! Thanks, guys. It's folks like you and the many, many other non-newspaper-industry readers I've picked up that give me hope about the future of ink on paper.

Heads up: After you hit "post" things may be slow and you may get an error. Most likely, your comment did post. Apologies. I'm looking for a fix.

Congrats, Mark. A very well-deserved honor. Please keep up the great work!

Kudos Mark!

P.s. I love it when they talk about single-malt Scotch . . .
