With NoScript on, the links on The Times site just don't do anything (they just redirect back to the homepage). Surely some sort of noscript option is possible...
One of the things they did do was move comments on stories over to the new site before the full transition, encouraging heavier online users to transition. That seemed quite a good move on their behalf, it almost made me sign up so I could troll^W write my informative comments there.
I used to read Jeremy Clarkson's article once a week. I can't any longer (without some kind of tinkering - which I'm not willing to do). I guess that's a few more pages they don't have to serve as I'm not going back.
I used to read the comment/letters and sometimes look at the headlines. I don't bother now - they sent me the "we're closing the site, free trial" email and I thought it wasn't worth signing up for a taste and then getting locked out. Google News and the BBC are filling the gap for conventional news for me.
