The Digital Era

I don't know about you, but pretty much everything I do these days involves some kind of technology. A app for notetaking, various e-readers, everything seems to be going digital.

Now, even magazines are joining in. This probably isn't new, but you could say that it's new to me. I was reading Rue Magazine online last night, and it dawned on me: I wish this was available in print form. I kind of missed having something tangible to hold. I know it's the time where everything is online and accessible and all that, but it made me nostalgic for an actual paper magazine.


I think there are perks and pitfalls for both, but I have to say that I think I'm an old-fashioned gal when it comes to magazines. I like to read and re-read and scribble and fold corners of important pages. And just can't do that with an online mag. With that being said, though, Rue Magazine is an outstanding example of an online magazine, combining the best of fashion and interior design into one. It's definitely better than some print magazines available...I encourage you to check it out!

So, what do you think? Are you ready to embrace the e-readers and online mags? Or are you traditional and like to read your books on paper? Maybe you're somewhere in the middle? Please share!
