B) In a separate building 7 blocks away that has a dif. Area code and zip code from the print newsroom
C) In the times builiding on a different floor
D)_In paris and hong kong
E) At home in their pajamas?

The answer is all of the above. That’s pretty cool.

Chase’s presentation was about the web operations at the Times. He presented demonstrations of several examples of multimedia stories done for the New York Times, and talked about the migration of several reporters from writing traditional stories to blogging.

It’s pretty cool that traditional journalists are able to shift back and from forth from their regular writing duties and sort of pursue alternative stories in blog form, especially at a place like the Times.
