Anyway: Looks like facebook is by now more important than EF. Discuss. | | | | | Yeah but that's only fair, after all the Facebook fans have their comments live on The Local all day... er, hang on, no, wait a moment...
I was more depressed that in their Twitter link on "what's going on in Switzerland" there was a horde of morons retweeting some crap about Justin Bieber being given a penknife....

It goes to show how you can make money without actually doing anything creative. The news is links to news sites, the jobs section is a link to experteer a jobs site, the forum section is a link to here and the property section is a link to property sites.
It's just a shell that brings people in, makes money from advertising while not actually having to create a single item itself.
Internet technology at work.

I see the links to experteer, but the news appears to be their own content, although the articles are rather slim pickings. It looks like a poor version of 20minutes.ch in English.
Hope to see more more depth eventually. Then they should register the domain name of 1hour.ch as a marketing ploy. |

It would have been nice if those who replied to the request for articles at least got a thank you message  isn't that quite rude?
