Mark Glaser round up some of the recent developments in online media industry: sites such as the BBC and News.com are linking more outside their domains, and WSJ.com and NYTimes.com are opening up more complimentary content in a nod to the “news conversation” online.

Richard Deverell, head of BBC News Interactive: “I think Google News has been a shot across the bow of all news originators, making us say ‘hold on, there’s a different way of doing this.’ It’s very easy to flip between different sources of news. We either try to reverse that trend, which is likely futile, or we facilitate it, and I’m keen that we take the latter route.”
