We have, as part of the backend to Linux Today, an Editorial Board that keeps track of who is working on what stories. In addition, we use email extensively, plus we have an IRC channel for quick communication. In spite of that, we occasionally will have a duplicate story go up. Early in the week, Monday and Tuesday, it is usually very easy to find content to post. As the week progresses though, it can be a struggle to find good content and resist posting something that is just a rehash of a story that has already been covered.
Weekends are more difficult since there is usually no news from the traditional sources.
This way, we are able to take a break and our readers can find some fresh content. Our readers are a very valuable source of content. Without them providing links and suggestions, Linux Today would not be were it is today. We search out the events and news and bring it to one place so that our readers don't have to spend the time doing that search for themselves. Through the forums and story talkbacks, we help to facilitate discussions within the community and give our readers a place to react to the news of the day.
