Abstract<br />
The purpose of this m<strong>as</strong>ter thesis w<strong>as</strong> to examine how a web edition<br />
of a newspaper can be designed in order to support the advantages of<br />
the Internet, i.e. interaction and participation of the readers, at the<br />
same time <strong>as</strong> preserving the credibility from the newspaper. Focus is<br />
on how the content should be presented and structured.<br />
The background for the work w<strong>as</strong> that the newspaper<br />
Göteborgs-Posten is planning to redesign their web edition gp.se and<br />
they wanted input for designing a new one. The aim with the work h<strong>as</strong><br />
been to present gp.se a few design proposals for them to continue<br />
work with.<br />
These proposals have been developed through literature<br />
studies, workshops and interviews with co-workers from gp.se. Out of<br />
this material two design proposals were developed in order to user test<br />
them. The outcome of the test results w<strong>as</strong> a third design proposal,<br />
which w<strong>as</strong> presented to gp.se. In addition, a list of design<br />
recommendations from a user perspective w<strong>as</strong> given to them.<br />
