A good news level two list allows the reader to obtain the most possible information, its list form also embodies the idea of the network, the following selected a number of news-oriented web site for example, a simple analysis of its two-level list of manifestations. They are: Xinhua, Jinyang Network, the southern Network and the Ocean network.
1, Xinhua
A large display per page, does not provide paging, the length of the page, not strictly by time classification, but the news will be in the near period of time to show that the news headlines in each group of 5 or 10 groups display, the focus of the news list in each group of 10 shows, and some of the news bold show the right to be significant.
2, Jinyang Network
Not strictly in chronological order, the weight of the news will be filled with solid squares in front of the logo, others with a hollow square logo, the list of the previous four news display summary, after each group of about 5 pieces of the way grouped display, provide paging and time to view the operation, the amount of information per page is also very large.
3. Ocean Network
Strictly chronological, the most recent row, not grouped display, no paging, but the amount of information is also very large.
4. South Net
Not strictly in chronological order, but the latest news can also be ranked in front of the page is not divided, the information is large.
Observation of the above several news networks, only the Xinhua and the Golden Ocean Network in the list of the most meticulous.
News is a time-sensitive thing, so news sites have to consider the time as the first factor, but the news also has its rights, so the combination of timeliness, appropriate to the weight of relatively large news in front. But because these website's news volume is very big, the group display news can help the reader to carry on the information fast screening, the "Islands" change "one Eye one group", reduces the visual fatigue. If there is special news, it can be displayed in particular, such as bold headings.
The goal of the two-level list is to get readers to get more index, and the headline of the news has already summed up the main content of the news, which is a basic common sense of journalism, so it is superfluous to add a news digest to the level two list.
