Digital Magazines
Zino : Great idea. I would switch to this in a heart beat, except the price for one magazine and one year subscription is just as much or more than the printed version. Why? No ink, no printing, no shipping, no fuel, no clerk handling it, no excess of costs in any of that. Why not much, much cheaper?
10 Years of the Dude
Great article in Rolling Stone about The Coen Brothers and their infamous box office flop, but cult hit, The Big Lebowski.
