Annarbor.com is in many ways the very product Christine Tracy describes in her Evolution of the Newspaper of the Future piece. Most notably the site has a great deal of community interacton in which readers have an opportunity to interact with the writers and even add their own content to the site. They feature a "Your Voice" section on every page that provides the method of correspondance Dr. Tracy describes as "ongoing communication."
Also the idea of more specialized communication is shown on annarbor.com. The site offers specific pages regarding different things going on in the different neighborhoods in the Ann Arbor area.
This idea of the audeience having the "newspaper" cater their individual needs and provide an opportunity for direct and instantaneous feedback is something truly new and unique that we should embrace. All signs indicate that we can look forward to many years of "evolution" to come.
