I've been burrowing through a stack of old magazines, and I had a copy of Yahoo! magazine, now defunct, which I'd picked up because the cover story was "100 Best Websites." Okay, I know few people seem to read these days - they just go online and ask people for suggestions. But if anyone here does read, are there any magazines that you'd go to for this kind of article? What I liked was that it was all-encompassing. I mean, not a food magazine recommending food sites. It covered things like: Best Alternative Press Best Alternative Medical Information Best Cancer Resource Best Women's Community Best Business News Best Bargain Hunter Best Consumer Product Reviews Best Personal Finance Best Tax Advice Best Travel Community Best Travel Deals Best Literary Resource Best Movie Reviews Best Music Best Free Games Best Consumer Computer News Best Tech Support So, as you can see, quite a range.
Why use the "best" of somebody else, when a lot of them were simple staff wriging assignments and taken, usualy, from older stock material. Make your own lists of Best. There is such an incredible amount of information on line about what is good or great... and it changes almost daily. Always remember what our medical school professor at Yale always told us, "The enemy of Good is Better." and re-apply that thought to everything you do with a computer.
I've never read too many magazines in my life but I did have a subscription to popular mechanics and popular science for awhile. They always had articles that were all over the place yet very interesting.
