News Tribune February 24, 2012 print edition! >click here<

Friday, February 24, 2012

As with any mechanical equipment, unforeseen issues can arise. Last night the folder on our press broke, leaving us unable to print today's paper. We have arranged for the Columbia Tribune to print today's edition for us. We hope to have our press fixed today. We encourage everyone to go to our e-edition to read the paper.

So today, we are offering up our entire news paper to everyone for free. You might recall when we first created our e-edition we opened it up to the public for an entire month. Today, we open it up to the public to use and comment here to let us know what you think.

The link is http://www.newstribune.com/e-edition/

All you need to do, if you don't know, is click on a story. Your story selection will pop up. (Yes, pop-ups need to be allowed.) Normally, this requires a password to access, but not while it's free.

Here are some things about our e-edition even our subscribers who use it daily might not know.

-You can view the entire week of news by clicking on the paper's date in the top navigation pulldown menu. Simply click on the date, scroll down to the day you would like to look at, click, and that paper will appear.

-You can download the entire newspaper in its original form and read it later, or not even online. This option is in the main window, under features.

-You can choose to view the paper in plain text or newspaper form. Your choice. Once you have an article open, select the View tab at the top of the article window. Quick View offers plain text with any photos at the bottom. Newspaper View offers the article in its original newspaper layout.

-Advertising also will pop up when you click on an ad. If some text within the pop-up ad is too small to read, try clicking on that area and a second pop-up should make it larger.

Again, we encourage you to give it a shot and let us know what you have to say.

Thank you,

The News Tribune

Did you know that our GO! Calendar is free for everyone to use? You can post events even if they are every other Wednesday. In fact if you set up an event, people can subscribe to it and get updates via email or sms message on the event in case it was changed or cancelled.

Everyone feel free to email me directly if you have any questions. kurtb@newstribune.com

I like the e-edition myself. Very convienent. Might be an option for me to try instead of the paper copy that I have to recycle after looking at a full weeks worth. I could save a couple hundred of trees a year doing this.

dokeus6- Thank you for the comment. Our e-edition is actually part of everyone's subscription that is a full time subscriber.

If you need help with a user name or password, just drop our circulation dept a note @ circ@newstribune.com. They will get back with you if you need help. Right now the log in is disabled for our e-edition but you can check this when we re-enable the subscriber list. Thanks!

I guessed there was a problem when circulation mail box was full. I think you all do a great job in production and anybody that doesn't know this can happen from time to time needs to get in the real world. Thanks. Ken

We are slowly working through all the voice mails in circulation. So far we have gone through quite a few. Thank you to everyone who called and let us know your of your concern with the paper. Some people were concerned for the delivery drivers, other people voiced concerns about the strong winds.

We appreciate your business and look forward to continuing to provide you with the areas most comprehensive news coverage.

We will post updates here.

Will there still be delivery service when it's ready? I've got to have my TV Guide. :)

gillyp- Were you aware that the e-edition (link at top of page) contains the TV week? After you are looking at the e-edition, simply go to the sections tab for today, and drop down to the TV Week. The section will show in your screen. You can browse the section, read articles or download any page (or all the pages) if you wish.

I went to the TV Week link & printed up a page. It was real tiny & blurry. Is there another link I can go to? Will there be a delivery for the paying subscribers? Are there papers out in the paper stands?

You might have better luck clicking on the TV grid you want, in order to open it, and then print that out. Or on the individual articles. I doubt if you can get an entire page of that tabloid-size dimension to print on a regular 8x11 sheet of printing paper. If you didn't receive your paper on Friday, it should be included with Saturday's delivery. (Some carriers have other obligations and weren't able to deliver later in the day.) If that doesn't happen, call (573) 636-3132 or email circ@newstribune.com.
