Site of the Day for Monday, January 21, 2019
Special greetings to those observing Martin Luther King, Jr. Day
Quartz
Today's site offers a publication from Atlantic Media that points to a global
business orientation but nevertheless reports on a surprisingly broad scope of
topics. Gentle Subscribers will discover succinct articles and short videos
zeroing in on current events on a variety of themes.
"Quartz is a global business news brand launched in September 2012 for people
who are excited by change. It serves as a digital guide to the new global
economy. ... Free and built for social distribution with no pay walls,
registration walls, or app downloads, Quartz can be accessed simply at qz.com."
- from the website
With just three broad categories, the magazine covers what it terms as Latest,
Obsessions, and Features, the stories in each revealed through a simple
mouseover. The homepage currently highlights the annual economic forum at Davos
as it gets underway, the buzz surrounding the 2019 Oscar nominations, and a
short video with remarkable footage on the Chinese development of electric car
rapid battery swapping. Additional articles interview Marie Kondo's highly
lauded interpreter, while another discloses exactly how Facebook users can
learn what the tech giant seems to know about them.
