The good news:
Somehow, against all odds, http://hammerschool.com is available.

While Advance Publicantions owns Reddit, Ars Technica, and Wired, they don't manage/publish those businesses. Conde Nast publishes Wired and Ars Technica, and other well-functioning businesses and websites. Advance simply bought Reddit - they haven't done much with it as far as I know.

ALL of the Advance Digital websites are awful. I've been pissed off at the oregonlive/oregonian arrangement for way too long. It's just a terrible operation. Just name your website oregonian.com, and have an in-house website management team. Don't create separate, confusing, differently-styled entities. I had friends who worked at the O, and they were practically competing with the Oregon Live staff for stories (and the oregon live staff were often not seasoned journalists putting out quality work). What a stupid arrangement!

I thought they abandoned the My Digital O name. Maybe they're trying to drum up readership by attracting folks looking for porn.

Folks looking for porn who don't know how to use google and the people who read the Oregonian editorial page are probably the same circle in a Venn diagram.

My Digital O O O O (see Office Space Drew).

Yeah, it doesn't seem THAT hard to have one kick-ass news site on oregonian.com with decent journalists. And no comments. And this shall come to pass WHEN I RULE THE EARTH.

Why Does the Oregonian Suck So Much?
FTFY Alex

Ironic that this occurs during Design Week.

The "O" in the green box of their logo just SCREAMS mid-'90s.

I've gone to OregonLive the past couple of days to read the accounts of the Blazers pre-season games. The usual stuff, which is OK. But where is the box score? Not to be found anywhere on The Oregonian site. So if I have to find the box score for a game at ESPN.com, that is just one more reason to ignore the Oregonian.

The Oregonian's own staff google articles rather than try to find their own stuff on OregonLive. It is so frustrating to type in the actual headline of an article and get zero matches.

The digital is indeed terrible, but let's also have the conversation about the rapidly declining quality of news and #seriousjournalism they are producing. So much click-bait lately. There's a twitter account documenting some of it. https://twitter.com/OregonDead
