"I didn’t know I was this geeky until I discovered the online world through my office’s 2400 baud modem back in ’93." News item standards
For work I’m trying to come up with some kind of generic format, a standard number of characters for headlines, body text (for larger and smaller articles) and excerpts on the frontpage of a news site. This to make syndication between our various sites easier.
Hopefully I’ll find some links (which I’ll publish here). I’m sure this has been researched before, and there should be some theory to be found online. Searching is made more difficult because sometimes I don’t know the right keyword to search on (what we might call an ‘ankeiler’ would probably be a ‘lead’ in English, etc.)
So far, just lots of ‘how to’ guides.
