Chicago Sun-Times Incorporates Convergence... How?

The most obvious way the Chicago Sun-Times incorporates convergence is by offering both print copies and subscriptions in addition to having all of their news online as well. On this website, they feature articles complete with pictures and links to similar or related stories. Sections also come with their own recent photo galleries that give stories in pictures... after all, a picture is worth a thousand words! The main page also provides links to labeled videos on relative topics and search engines for various things, including how to find parking in Chicago; that can be difficult. Across the page, things are broken up by subject, for example there are headings such as Religion, and Transportation. Along the left side of the page you can find blogs, columns by author, as well as the Classifieds. Everything that can be found in the newspaper, as well as additional pictures and video, are available on the site. There is also a constantly updated weather box, which is not something that can be put in the newspaper, as the weather changes throughout the day, and the paper only comes out once. This is one of the benefits of having a website for a newspaper: you are able to incorporate up-to-date information or breaking news, that may not have been featured in that day's paper, which lives up to the newspaper's goal of keeping its audience informed.
