New IW news...
InfoWorld folds print mag to focus on online and events

Yes, the rumors are true. As of April 2, 2007, InfoWorld is discontinuing its print component. No more printing on dead trees, no more glossy covers, no more supporting the US Post Office in its rush to get thousands of inky copies on subscribers' desks by Monday morning (or thereabouts). The issue that many of you will receive in your physical mailbox next week -- vol. 29, issue 14 -- will be the last one in InfoWorld's storied 29-year history.

It would seem, therefore, that the three human impulses embodied in religion are fear, conceit, and hatred. The purpose of religion, one might say, is to give an air of respectibility to these passions. -- Bertrand Russell

New First things first...
hello Slugbug, been quite a while. hope all's well.

And then, 'tis a sad passing. IW (print) and I started our "relationship" somewhere betwee '79 and '81. Wish I had one of the old copies to see.

...quite awhile, but all is well. Did the iwethey--/iwethey++ dance and things are much improved.

Have copies of several of the old issues. Can't go back...gotta go forward.

My $0.02,

New It is sad.
Now I'm nostalgic for the 'old' IW.
Imric's Tips for Living
  • Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
  • Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
  • Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.


Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.

I'm paraphrasing, because it's easier than research.
