The New York Times’s morning news (“narrative news“) podcast will soon come out on weekends as well. Other ambitious Serial-style audio shows are also in the works, the company announced at its NewFront presentation in New York Monday morning.

By mid-April, The Daily had been downloaded and streamed a combined 20 million times since launch, but it’s looking for more: You’ll now also be able to listen to The Daily, as well as other Times podcasts, on Spotify.

Other fun tidbits from the morning’s presentation:
When @nytimes partnered with BMW for #TheDaily they guaranteed 750,000 listens but streams are around 25 million #newfronts

The Interactive Advertising Bureau-sponsored NewFront are a week’s worth of live press releases (h/t my colleague for the observation) from digital media companies preparing to impress advertisers, so there will surely be more tidbits. Follow along on Twitter.

I am curious to find out what blog platform you’re utilizing? I’m experiencing some small security problems with my latest site and I’d like to find something more safeguarded. Do you have any recommendations?
A large percentage of of the things you state is supprisingly appropriate and that makes me ponder why I hadn’t looked at this with this light before. Your piece really did turn the light on for me personally as far as this issue goes. Nevertheless at this time there is just one point I am not really too cozy with and whilst I make an effort to reconcile that with the core theme of the position, permit me observe exactly what the rest of the readers have to say.Very well done.
Oh my goodness! Amazing article dude! Thank you so much, However I am having problems with your RSS. I don’t know the reason why I cannot join it. Is there anybody getting identical RSS issues? Anyone that knows the answer will you kindly respond? Thanx!!
