Comments on: The Truth about Magazines? Or the Dying Cries of Dinosaurs? http://mikeberard.com/blog/2009/10/22/the-truth-about-magazines-or-the-dying-cries-of-dinosaurs/ The blog of Whistler B.C.-based writer Mike Berard Mon, 11 Apr 2011 18:30:04 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Kara http://mikeberard.com/blog/2009/10/22/the-truth-about-magazines-or-the-dying-cries-of-dinosaurs/comment-page-1/#comment-178 Kara Fri, 23 Oct 2009 17:29:29 +0000 http://mikeberard.com/blog/?p=1172#comment-178 I am not ready to give up reading magazines, but it certainly isn't because of statistics and flashing text. Am starting to despise these types of videos, they certainly do nothing to inspire with their hookie audio tracks. Just like I prefer picking up an actual book to a Kindle, I think that magazines have their place. There is a TON of places to get information today, but I look forward to receiving my Ski Magazine and Vanity Fair subscriptions every month. There is still something to be said for actually flipping the pages. I am not ready to give up reading magazines, but it certainly isn’t because of statistics and flashing text.

Mike that is. A lot of hot air I think. I will agree mags are for medium seekers, and during big events, they are a time capsule. I still have clippings from 9/11. But that is only nostalgic to those of us that still know what paper is. The coming generations may well not. Well said. Mike that is. A lot of hot air I think.
