Less Moore
Less Moore: If the crowds heading into Spiderman II tonight were any indication, the movie buzz is moving beyond last weeks puffery over Farhenheit 911. More importantly, the crowds coming out of the film were like me: ready to go … Continue reading
Are you from Jurzee?
Are you from Jurzee? One of the five readers of this weblog was kind enough to forward me a link to a Washington Post feature story on the twice-a-year magazine called Weird NJ. According to WP staff writer Libby Copeland, … Continue reading
Starbucks custom media – learning from failure
Starbucks custom media, learning from failure: Apologies to my five regular readers. This will not be the typical one-paragraph post you’ve come to tolerate. And I’m writing it in first person (mainly because I wrote some of it a long … Continue reading
Latest cool gadget – Free magazines
Latest cool gadget – Free magazines: Gizmodo has discovered how to get a free 12-month subscription to Wired via a website that’s under construction as discovered on a site called SlickDeals.net. (Warning: This weblog’s mother always said, “you can’t always … Continue reading
Falling over themselves
Falling over themselves: Gawker is following up with naming news regarding that CondeNast home-shopping vaporzine we blogged last March. When it finally arrives, the magazine will be called Domino, according to the the press release. I guess it must have … Continue reading
Buckley bows
Buckley bows: This weblog has been intending all day to blog the “divestiture” of the National Review by its founder, William F. Buckley Jr. But, one thing after another happened and the next thing this weblog knows, it was watching … Continue reading
Wfluxed
Wfluxed: If this weblog knew anyone who worked for someone named Newhouse, this weblog would suggest that at a convenient time, they drop a hint to Mr. Big that the whole shopping-magazine thing perhaps has jumped the shark. By the … Continue reading
Fast Co.’s slow linking update
Fast Co.’s slow linking update: BoingBoing’s Cory Doctorow says Fast Company’s new in-bound linking policy is only slightly less clueless than the previous one the magazine has been shammed (primarily, by Cory) into replacing. Cory says their linking policy should … Continue reading
When is a magazine not a magazine?
When is a magazine not a magazine? This weblog doesn’t get too hung-up over people using the word “magazine” to describe something other than a magazine. However, it would be nice if announcements of “new magazines” would at least bury … Continue reading
iDissed
iDissed: As mysteriously as iDisk disappeared for this weblog and others (but not all) for 15 hours, it has now mysteriously reappeared. This weblog predicts, however, that its iDisk-hosted (for a fee paid to a large corporation) images will be … Continue reading
Shameless self-promotional post
Shameless self-promotional post: This weblog is not used to getting listed among “companies making good business use of blogs,” so forgive our lack of humility in pointing to this brilliant column on marketingprofs.com by the incredibly insightful writer B.L. Ochman. … Continue reading
iDisk outage
iDisk outage: If the discussions at Apple.com are any indication, this weblog’s problems with iDisk are fairly widespread. As this is a service run by a large corporation for which this weblog pays $100 a year, we feel it is … Continue reading
Theme week
Theme week: Yesterday this weblog posted two items about magazines wallowing in consumerism and cliched street pop culture. So, it seems appropriate that to today we blog the vaporzine announcement of the third attempt at Trump World, slated for a … Continue reading
Pixless
Pixlless: This weblog appears to have lost all of the images stored on iDisk. Somebody at Apple needs to stop working on all those cool new “Tiger” features and get my .Mac account fixed.
Trippin
Trippin’: MediaPost’s Michael Shields profiles Complex Magazine (which raises a philosophical question I wish one of the five rexblog readers could help me answer: “Is Complex Magazine the opposite of Real Simple Magazine?”) Quote: Jimmy Jellinek believes that the two-and-a-half-year-old … Continue reading
