Well, there are several (IMHO not incompatible) goals here: 1. Publish something for "the masses" and with mass appeal. I would posit that neither you nor I truly have an accurate "feel" for this; we're hackers with a hacker's myopia. Let someone else worry about it! 2. Publish something by and for the more technically proficient (who are bored silly by 90% of what they see in LJ anyway). Why not work on #2 and actively encourage #1? In the mass appeal category, you almost can't have too many magazines. Jordan
