A Quick Pointer For 'Tribune' Visitors

For those of you coming to this site via the URL provided in the bio-blurb at the bottom of our commentary in today's edition of the Portland Tribune, first let us direct you to the original version which appeared as a post here before being somewhat transformed into a newspaper commentary.

That will let you see some of the context of that item, as well as the somewhat contentious discussion it sparked at the time, both around that post and elsewhere. In case you're here to join in on that discussion, now you know where it exists.

Meanwhile, if you're here looking around for other coverage of the same-sex marriage issue, we're fairly certain that all of it was placed in the Metro-Area Politics, Law Enforcement & Legal Issues, and State of Oregon categories, so you'll have to browse around until and unless we decide to go back through and add a category expressly for coverage of that issue.

Otherwise, just poke around. Links to navigate to other portions of this site are in the left-hand sidebar, and if you take a look through the right-hand sidebar at all, be sure to scroll down to the Regional Weblogs listings for some other Portland and Oregon sites that we read on a regular basis.

    Of course, I haven't seen the print edition, but the online version has a mysterious hyphen after the word "communique" in the URL, the inclusion of which, of course, will result in people getting errors instead of coming to this site. But now that this item is up, I can go downtown and have coffee, and see if that error exists in the print edition as well.

    Not to mention the fact that the address is not a link. Yet another example of traditional media that don't quite "get" the web. My guess is that the hyphen is from them splitting your URL up on two lines in the print version. Yet another mistake most newspaper editors make with regard to URLs.

    it's a line break in the printed version.

    (www.communique
    .portland.or.us)

    Maybe Trib readers will be savvy enough to Google for Portland Communique?

    Well, it's correct in the print edition anyway.
