Parallels closes on June 5 and NPR international coverage moves to NPR World at npr.org/world. Five blogs—Parallels, All Tech Considered, NPR Ed, The Two-Way, and The Record—are being retired, and stories will be organized by topic instead of blog labels. International reporting by correspondents, contributors, and editors continues, but readers will find stories at different locations under the new topic structure. The Parallels page will stop updating after the final post. Twitter updates to @NPRWorld, and RSS readers can switch to NPR World using the provided update options, including a JSON feed. Parallels launched in May 2013 and published thousands of stories across news, analysis, commentary, and visually compelling features.
"The same stories will still be reported and posted. But readers will find them in different places, and the stories will no longer carry those blog labels."
"On June 5, the Parallels blog is closing, and NPR's international coverage is moving to a page called NPR World. It's part of an effort by NPR to present our digital stories in a new way. So five blogs Parallels, All Tech Considered, NPR Ed, The Two-Way and The Record are being retired and stories will instead be organized by topic."
"In other words, the work of our international correspondents, contributors and editors will continue as ever it will just be available at a different address. The Parallels page will no longer be updated after this post. Our new URL is npr.org/world. (Please bookmark it!)"
"Parallels launched as NPR's international news blog five years ago, in May 2013, hosted by Greg Myre, now NPR's national security correspondent. Back then, Greg noted that it was a time "when many American news organizations have retreated from international coverage. ... But NPR has been bucking that trend. We have reporters around the world who are willing to go anywhere to find a good story and explain what it means.""
