WaPo Gets Prematurely Personal

In an effort to make its unbearably slow and unnavigable website more user-friendly, washingtonpost.com has launched “Personal Post.” The new feature aggregates readers’ favorite WaPo writers and blogs into one page that automatically updates throughout the day.

How it works

Personal Post users can either log in with their washingtonpost.com account or pick one of three ready-made templates to browse: “Know It All” (general news), “Washington Life” (D.C. social scene) and “National Pulse” (wonky government news). But, as is often the case with WaPo’s sad site, a click of each individual template currently renders the same story results.
