I find it uncomfortable to read the paper online because my recliner won't bring me close enough to the screen on my desktop. By the way, I'm from north central Arkansas, too. :)Bettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07309266986583326824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1509736677359366469.post-40286310498328456492009-01-26T13:51:00.000-06:002009-01-26T13:51:00.000-06:00Well aren't you lucky Kenju getting free Magazines...Well aren't you lucky Kenju getting free Magazines. I usually start getting renew notices two months after I signed up. I'm a bit of a magazine junkie but even the mags are getting thinner. Somehow you fell thru the cracks in N*wsweeks subscription dept. Just enjoy the freebie. We don't get many.<BR/><BR/>Yeah, Robin, I am part of the problem also. I only buy the Sunday paper. The rest of the week is electronic. Saves trees that way but there is something about the leasurely hunting for articles of interest, the rustle of the pages and the ink stains on the fingers that I still like and would miss should it go "dinosaur" on us.Arkansas Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156004753267665579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1509736677359366469.post-57845938199884992672009-01-26T13:46:00.000-06:002009-01-26T13:46:00.000-06:00If you like tp do it the second time.Put to Google...If you like tp do it the second time.<BR/>Put to Google only:<BR/>floridaan.com<BR/><BR/>Then take Vuokraa Floridasta.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1509736677359366469.post-88432657509703696732009-01-26T10:39:00.000-06:002009-01-26T10:39:00.000-06:00I have to admit that I'm part of newspapers' probl...I have to admit that I'm part of newspapers' problems because I read all of their stuff online, for free. Before I retired I advised students who published the campus newspapers at a California university. I watched young journalism students honing their craft everyday. There is still so much enthusiasm for it. It's quite gratifying. I just don't know how newspapers can make it with the online competition. I would be happy to buy subscriptions to a few online papers, but I suspect that would kill the beautiful paper edition. I definitely think about this a lot, and don't see a very good outcome.robin andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390482190562312928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1509736677359366469.post-7352873032262856702009-01-26T08:17:00.000-06:002009-01-26T08:17:00.000-06:00When we first moved here, 39 years ago, the newspa...When we first moved here, 39 years ago, the newspapers (there were 2 then) were thick and meaty. Now, we are down to one paper and it is getting thinner and thinner. There are almost as many store ads, but way fewer want ads. <BR/><BR/>I haven't noticed many changes in magazines, and I get one I don't even subscribe to - N*wsweek. I got a free subscription to it 4 years ago through an airline miles program and that was supposed to expire in 1 yr., but they are still sending it to me every week! I don't know how they can afford to do that.kenjuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07342414519714356343noreply@blogger.com
