Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Didn't she leave for a dot.com?
Probably has finally found her level of competence asking "You want frys with that?".

Sandy certainly did everything possible to destroy InfoWorld's credibility in the IT community, launching it on it's way to it's current newsletter size (66 pages this week).

New Aiyeee... only 66 pages. DAM.
I remember back when it finally was 66 pages in size, they changed from the really light newsprint paper to the "white stuff" that was semi-coated.

What is it like now?

No matter how much Microsoft supporters whine about how Linux and other operating systems have just as many bugs as their operating systems do, the bottom line is that the serious, gut-wrenching problems happen on Windows, not on Linux, not on Mac OS. -- [link|http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1622086,00.asp|source]

It's 7-3/4" x 10-3/4" magazine size, all glossy paper and thin enough to blow away in a light breeze.

eWeek (formerly PCWeek) was the first to go small format and it's 66 pages just like InfoWorld. Still in full tabloid size are ComputerWorld (46 pages), NetworkWorld (88 pages) and CRN (formerly Computer Reseller News) at 134 pages.

Of those that have always been in small format, InformationWeek is at 116 pages, Network Computing is at 116 pages and Network Magazine (larger at 8-1/2"x 11" is at 84 pages.

All in all, I'd say Sandy's play to dump the techies and pitch to the corporate boys and girls has been stonewalled by InformationWeek and the techies now go elsewhere.

In other news, Linux Journal is at 96 pages, Specturm (serves the Pick community (remember Pick)) is at 47 pages every two months and Internet Retailer, serving the dead dot.coms is at 72 pages but on much heavier paper than InfoWorld. Health Data Management is at 112 pages.

With a page intentionally left blank? :)

Of course, it's nice that "Sandy Reed" is also a porn queen.

It looks like someone transcribed a naval weather forecast while woodpeckers hammered their shift keys, then randomly indented it.
