The NYT Company purchased a division of Primedia called 'About.com' and was just another small deal that I read about (puns are too easy with this) until this week I realized that the target company was a source I was actually using. About.com is a great free source for all kinds of free information and free courses. If you are reading this you know that I am new to blogging; to learn more I have been taking a tutorial from About.com (CSS which is Cascading Style Sheets...) so I have renewed interest in the deal in hope that NYT won't start charging for the great programs.
For your information here's about About - About U.: "About U.
