The Lovely Magazine
During the winter break I’ve been trying to get caught up with my non-blog reading. You know, the written word with a finite beginning and ending point, rather than my favorite endless RSS feeds of content and commentary typical for the web based reading experience.
If you’re traveling long distances via airport I cannot recommend MONOCLE enough. You can find it at Barnes and Noble or any legitimate newsstand. It’s dense, easy to carry like a Moleskine notebook, and pretty much an editorial cross between The Economist and Details magazine.

All this brings me to consider the future of my lovely news magazine. With declining readership and the eventual rotation to web only format, what tools and user experience models will begin to dominate the sphere? I’m betting it will most likely look alot like this conceptual video from Bonnier R&D above.

It’s always flattering to find an article with your name and face in it, and this is no exception. This year I agreed to help out the Greater Los Angeles African American Chamber of Commerce as an ambassador, and so far it’s been very rewarding. Aside from my geeky picture this is a great and appreciated write up on me and my business.
