The Making of MormonTimes.com

Imagine being the editor or the designer of a major newspaper at a
time when many print papers are dying as their readership moves to
online news media. Joe Cannon, Editor of the Deseret Morning News,
and his staff have not only reinvented themselves online at
DesNews.com, but have in the process also invented a whole new
forum for Latter-day Saint culture and
belief—MormonTimes.com.

From his office in Salt Lake City, Joe Cannon talks about the
paper's tradition, putting MormonTimes.com together and what it
hopes to capture, as well as a little bit about his own online
feature—no longer anonymous—The Word of the Week.

In the newsroom itself, web expert Joe Charbonneau talks about the
technical details, what stories are most popular, and the
technologies which keep adding features to MormonTimes.com.
