The New York Times has launched a new interactive feature that allows readers to upload their pictures of the economic recession to its Web site. The project is titled P.U.F.F.Y. – photo upload form for you – and had its trial run during the Hudson plane crash. The site now has hundreds of photos, in categories of business, home, transportation and others.
