Why it matters
A timestamped comparison makes relative publication speed easier to inspect, while the PHP example shows how being earlier among tracked outlets does not guarantee becoming the visible link in an aggregator.
News for Startups is publishing a public scoreboard that compares technology outlets' publication times and tracks which follow-up stories credit earlier coverage. RuntimeWire, the publication operating the site, appears in the same rankings it says apply to all outlets.
