Mag+

Coupling this concept with the realities of HTML/CSS, licenced images, web typography, and embeddable web fonts should yield a new web (maybe even 3.0) in which the web switches format to a scrollable magazine.  I have to say this is an attractive concept to me because some of the things I’m working on would function better in book form but would be effectively obsolete if I tried to do things that way.

It’s also attractive to me in that it’s flashy without using Flash.

Sure, the iPad would work great for this, but at the same time so would every other computer and monitor on the market.

History Matters

So, back when people read books, fantasy novels had a nasty habit of laying out a few pages of maps at their beginnings.  While useful in helping the reader visualize the world, I’m thinking they were more to establish a history and life of the world in the author’s head.  After that’s established, you have these maps and histories kicking around so why not publish them?

Things That Are More Interesting Than Khabibulin's Contract

I have a confession to make.

It’s something I’ve been sitting on for months, truthfully, but never quite found the right way or cause to say, but after a recent trip to Copper & Blue resulted in a front page filled entirely with goalie posts, I finally hit my breaking point. I then sat on it a couple of weeks more, to make sure I wasn’t being irrational, but nope, I still feel strongly about this.

The horrible truth is, I just don’t care about the offseason.
