And the Oscar for Most Read Web Story goes to ....

On Monday, Gina Carbone who had our number 1, 6 and 15 stories with her Oscar coverage. Gina and Company did a great job both online and in print. Check out her blog "Seacoast Pop Culture" when you get a chance.

I'd also like to thank Scott Yates for turning around a photo and extended cutline on the veterinary clinic fire in Newington late Saturday. That was our number one web content item on Sunday.

Kudos also to Jenn Feals for her well rounded story on dirty dancing at Exeter High School.

One area where we can improve: text alerts. We're lagging in the number of these we send out and that is causing us to fall behind our peers in terms of text alert subscribers. Let's look for opportunities to communicate with our readers via Textcaster.
