Yes, we love love this new fashion magazine from Berlin. Check out this new independant magazine, undertitled “my printed blog” but not a blog that became a magazine, not at all, the blog reference is more about the logic that will lead each issue of the magazine.

Great summary from It’s Nice That: “A magazine is a very personal item – like ice cream you’re never going to like all the flavours, and there’s always one or two that you always find yourself leaning back towards. Those that we seem to have more affinity for either hold a certain shot of nostalgia (The Face / Nova), a good dose of quality writing and original features (Wired / 032C) and of course a mention should be made to the independents (Little White Lies). It seems as though popular opinion would suggest that in the age of mass consumption through the internet, we look to our printed friends more for niche information and as company, rather than a quick fix of small snippets. When we pick up a magazine we want something a little more special than the process of consuming a web article, it should be a (pleasurable) physical experience, not just a literary one. It seems as though the editors with that in mind will continue to survive, and perhaps even thrive.” Via
We live in a publishing society: Mercedes Bunz about the Social Media Count. “When the internet became a mainstream medium, we described it as a “pull” medium opposed to TV, which was a “push” medium. But since social media has got popular there is more to it: after push and pull comes publish.”
