The Globe and Mail and the Web

The Globe and Mail drives me nuts because it is terrible at dealing with the internet.

Consider this story, about an experiment with crowdfunding in the sciences. In the whole article, there’s not a single link. Not a link to the actual crowdfunding site under discussion, not a link to the funding agency being discussed.

It’s not that they can’t link in their CMS. It’s just that they seem to write like it’s still a print publication.
