From Media Bistro, “Wired Magazine Rewires for a New Age”
Like the digital world it draws on, Wired is moving from revolution to evolution. Once known for its jarring graphics and edgy approach to culture and technology issues, the magazine today is easier to read — no crazy fonts in sight — and is settling into a more general-interest niche.[...]
Back in the early 90s, I got a few issues of Wired magazine from a free trial subscription. But, as legend accurately depicts, Wired was quirky-for-the-sake-of-quirky, and I let the trial subscription lapse. Hmm, maybe next time I'm in [B&N|Borders], I'll give Wired another look.
Update: Ah! I see that their June issue (post-update) is fully available online. That's convenient, as I'll be able to read it online (for free) to see if it really has improved.
