New York Times Confirms Pay Model for 2011
The New York Times confirmed today that beginning in early 2011 the company will adopt a paid model for its web site, NYTimes.com . Disclosure: ReadWriteWeb is a syndication partner of the New York Times.

Its revenues last year were $551 million, but it wants to get to $1 billion by 2011. Click it, and you call the business you were looking for, and the call is paid for by either the business or the Yellow Pages partner. Presumably, the Yellow Pages partners would only pay for numbers in their directories, so Skype would have to come up with a way to indicate which calls are free and which ones are not. While eBay prepares to unload Skype via a sale or IPO next year , it is busy looking for new ways to make money off its 405 million global users. They already account for
