New York Times Select
Mar. 16th, 2007 03:32 pmI set up a RSS feed for the History News Network (
historynewsnet), in case anyone is interested. This is a tidbit I found out through them today:
NYT TimesSelect To Be Free For College Students, Faculty

In January ‘06, NYT.com began offering its premium TimesSelect for half price to academics. It seemed like a pretty good deal at the time, yet when I did the math last August, the academic subscriptions accounted for less than 2 percent of the paying subs—about 3,800 total then. Now the site is taking a new approach: TimesSelect will be free to registered college students and faculty with an .edu email address. Current students subs will get pro-rated refunds.
