OSNews, Generic OSes As you may have noticed by now, we've introduced a little something called 'page 2' (look to your right). We added this feature because we felt we needed a way to 'tier' the news we publish on OSNews, because a regular (and valid) complaint has been that people felt that interesting, one-of-a-kind items were being drowned out by run-of-the-mill items like software releases, short distribution reviews, and so on. Read on for a little more insight into this one.

Taking the current home page, here's the personal adjustments I would make as far as categorisation:

Move from Page 1 to Page 2
"Introducing Page Two"
(Reason: Meta)

"ReactOS 0.3.7 Released"
(Reason: Summary contains no feature details)

"Opera CEO: Mini Never Submitted to Apple"
(Reason: Gossip)

"Gruber: Opera Never Submitted Mini to Apple"
(Reason: Gossip)


Move from Page 2 to Page 1
"Benchmarks: Mac OS X 10.5 vs. Ubuntu 8.10"
(Reason: Independent Research)

"Lotus Symphony 1.2, Now with Mac OS X Support" (Maybe)
(Reason: Mac OS X support is a major, notable, feature difference)
