The site is made up of a core news site, plus a network of niche websites covering subjects including media, sport, education and the public sector. "Guardian Unlimited" is notable for its engagement with readers, including long-running talkboards and, more recently, a network of weblogs. Both the talkboards and blogs accept comments without pre-moderation. Most of the site can be viewed for free and without registration, though some services such as the talkboard and its media industry news site require users to register.
