New York (Social) Times

Found via VentureBeat, the New York Times is adding a social networking component in a beta project they're calling TimesPeople.  In their own words:

TimesPeople is a new way to discover what other readers find interesting on our site — and to make recommendations of your own. With TimesPeople, you can share articles, videos, slideshows, blog posts, comments on articles, and ratings and reviews of movies, restaurants and hotels.

Some internet gurus have said the term "social media" will be obsolete because all media will eventually be social.  That internet users will come to expect all websites with media to have social components.  Something to ponder for churches, ministries, and New York Times readers.
