I don’t get the Star, you know the paper in the morning, but every once in a while I do search it online for the occasional local real estate article that I’ve been told I should read.
Apparently there was one in Sunday’s paper about sharing ownership of luxury homes – as the new cure-all for the high-end market I suppose. Anyway I searched for it and searched for it on the Star web site and on Google, on Bing, and the Star web site again. But I couldn’t find anywhere. Nothing. Not hide nor hair of it. That’s really odd, I thought.
And then I saw that the Star only released the article in the print version of the paper. Yes, it’s true, it’s only available in the print version, not online. And apparently they do that with many articles from the paper. They’re only available in the actual paper. Really!
It’s an interesting strategy, ha-ha, for staying competitive in the 21st century. And I wish them luck with it too. I won’t, but I’m sure gazillions of others are going to rush out and subscribe to the Star for that occasional article they’d like to see that is only available in the print edition. I don’t get the Star.
