Gone tabbing

Papers in the UK are unleashing tabloid editions. No topless P.3 girls for the Times of London, alas, but there appears to be a trend afoot:

The move by The Times and The Independent is slightly different from the approach taken by a number of American newspapers, which have started free editions aimed at younger audiences. Giveaway publications for commuters have sprung up throughout Europe, too. A Sweden-based company publishes free papers called Metro in more than 25 cities around the world, and a Norwegian company has introduced rival papers called 20 Minutes in several cities. In London, a separate Metro is published by the company that owns The Daily Mail, one of the best-selling British tabloids.
