   Congratulations! Lots of information presented Very Clearly. Wish Bits was a bit more toward the top, but I guess it is like the milk — it draws us down to the content lower on the page. Looks great.

   So Bits is on the top and the bottom of the page. Was focussing on that big Bits logo on the bottom. I like that logo.

   Bits got competition from VCs like GigaOm. IF this comment does not get published , we know just where to switch loyalties . Just kidding !
   Will this lead to Bits having a new color Word Press Template. I mean seriously, this is a plain white tech blog !!!

   I love the new look and content- NYT Bits is definitely my first stop for my daily (and sometimes hourly) tech fix! Congrats!

   Vindu – THIS is very exciting from an audience perspective – one place for it all!
   BTW – when I click on your links to subscribe to technology or Bits, I get garbled pages. fyi

   Nevermind my prior comment on the links not working – it was incompatibility with Chrome, Vindu :)
   Worked with FF

    It’s nice to see the investment. You’ve made a lot of people very happy, not the least of whom are your new content partners! Congrats to all.

    Now, Nytimes is glued to my chrome and pushed me out of google reader. Appreciate the clear demarcation of techie news. Am afraid, i would end up browsing only nytimes/technology pages till the dusk

    Get a grip, NYT! You’re compounding the wretched felony that you, and the W’ton Post and others, have wrought already–the treason to good news coverage of confounding technology with business. You don’t spend half the Sports section on the stock market in memorabilia and stadiums; please stop, rather than increase, the intermingling of news about technology AS SUCH and tech biz. This is the right time to separate the two more clearly. Be a leader, introduce the category of TECH BIZ and segregate; othewise you’ll just force more readers to Crave, Engadget, et al.
    This is as bad as schoolpeople using the work ‘technology’ to mean just computers, in the schools. Part of the reason we are losing the technology race is that we’re UNCLEAR ON THE CONCEPT…

    I understand that NYT personnel have been winging their way back and forth to Google HQ lately. I suspect this site is the result of close collaboration between the two companies. The Tech section in particular and the entire NYT web site has become the “best of show” IMHO.

    Congratulations.

    Good job on building up the Technology section! My only suggestion would be to not directly “repeat” (duplicate) the exact same article under Business Section. My own feelings are that due to “business” sector, now 90% of the US economy is “service sector.” This is because business has not be doing it’s job. Thus, I would rather see Technology right in with Tech — which has kept the Economy going strong. People in our group (www.geocities.com/engineer_brunch) who are employed by the New York Times have also cited this issue.
