Sorry about coming across as snarky - I did like the full feed, and I do miss it.
NNW's feature has to be explicitly turned on, and you shouldn't let its existence stress you any more than diff does.
Cory's habit of showing substantial corrections in BoingBoing using strikethrough is a good one.
DRM Destroys Value. Simple as that. The only thing that may save DRM is that it is always crackable, so people may put up with the irritation in the knowledge that they can undo it later.
As for solving the 'getting artists paid' problem in the digital world, I have an idea over at http://mediagora.com that I think will work.
please bring it back...
Is showing your edits giving away professional secrets of the editors?
Does this mean EST is close enough to publication that we should start writing reviews?

Brilliant! The tone is perfect. Is molesworth still in print?
Hernando de Soto would be a good candidate too.
More balanced views from a Grauniad reader I see. Here's the article entitled 'Welsh Pensioner turns freedom fighter:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/israel/Story/0,2763,905395,00.html
The Pensioner is quoted as follows:
"I really, really understand the martyrs [suicide bombers]. I am very good friends with the family of the two who went on the mission to Tel Aviv. One saw the other explode, and then he walked away and blew himself up. They are such lovely families and very proud of their sons."
Twenty-three people died in those bombings in Tel Aviv in January, including many poor foreign workers. Was it wrong?
"I agree that it is a strategic mistake but I understand why they do it," she said. "Let's not blame the victims. It's clear who the real terrorists are here."
The selfsame Guardian recently ran an article priasing Palestinian suicide bombers, and long supported the IRA (Irish terrorists - remember them) agenda.
How about the sentiments expressed in the Telegraph which has a readership 3 to 4 times that of the Grauniad.
