Overlapping lists

It seems that the lists at In the News and Links To Our Work overlap a lot. Maybe Reviews of Our Work too.

Let's try to organize this.

  • In the News: should only contain links to our work found on corporate media sources (Le Monde, BBC, CNN, Make Magazine)?
  • Links To Our Work: if an item doesn't fit the previous criteria, put it here. So this should contain links to our work found on personal or not-for-profit sites, blogs, and the like?
  • Reviews of Our Work: the criterium here should be if a page presents a non-trivial review of our work.

Or we should just merge them all together?

These pages seem like they have value because they act as an archive of interest in the project and media exposure. Because of this, I think it makes sense to merge all three of these and organize the links chronologically. Especially salient links could be highlighted by formatting them differently so they stick out.

If this is not an archive, and is really more of a tool to show to the potentially interested the level of media exposure OSE has received to achieve a "everyone else likes it" reaction, then chronological arrangement makes less sense. If this is the case, I think some kind of ranking based on level of impressiveness would be appropriate.

If these two purposes are at odds, I propose creating two pages: one archive with everything, and one page of highlights that is redundant to the archive but shorter and flashier.
