"The New York Times Store: Gemstone Globe Paperweights - Copper Amber"

Sometimes I wonder if anyone else is paying any attention to the frontier between the printed and electronic newspapers.

Consider this paperweight.

Today's printed The New York Times contains a small house display ad for the paperweight. It caught my eye. I wanted to know more. So I went to the site, searched on paperweights and found it.

However, in the printed paper today, it says that it comes in four colors. When I go online, it tells me I can have any color I like as long as I pick "copper amber"! Surely, the others did not all sell out this morning......

Newspapers need people focused on this and they don't seem to care.
