Indeed, that's the first thing I looked for. The website manages printing in two ways, depending on the section:
1. Open a print dialog box that will print the current page as it shows, with all the icons, comments, menus and other garbage.
2. Open a pop-up window saying there's been a bad server request.

So, not very useful.

Also, the RSS is awful. Sometimes it gives links as www.sociedade.publico.pt, sometimes as www.publico.pt/sociedade, sometimes as www.publico.pt, etc, etc I cannot make head or tails out of it, really.

I know, this newspaper website is a mess structurally and otherwise. But it's my favourite Portuguese newspaper (very popular there, too) and I gotta keep learning that beautiful language.
