Life is grand

I am not in complete agreement with Khoi Vihn on the subject of magazines. While I find many magazines to be, as he points out, boring and outdated there are two that pull me back everytime; National Geographic and CAR.

I am also trying out a few sailing magazines which, while full of interesting info for someone just getting into sailing, have poor writing standards. It sounds strange to say it but CAR magazine has fantastic writing.

For me magazines are good for topics I don’t know an awful lot about. Computer magazines are awful in my opinion; I am a programmer. Photography magazines are just terrible; I am a middling photographer. Car magazines are great; I own a Ford Fiesta.

One thing I love about CAR magazine is the mix of photography and words, all layed out in a format that very few websites come close to matching.
