Hey, guess what's new with Wired 14.03: Wired Magazine Issue 14.03?

Well, you're not going to be able to tell online. What's new is that there's a lot less to Wired magazine now, physically. And I'm not talking about a lack of bloat from all of the Web 2.0 companies advertising.

No... it's smaller this way: (from the end of rants + raves): "The magazine you're holding is a smidge smaller than previous issues - we took an inch off the side, to be exact."

Wha!?! Sometimes an inch is a smidge, and sometimes it's not. Sigh. First they kick-out their patron saint and his monthly quotes, lose the whacky styling, and now they get smaller.

I've been reading Wired since the very first issue. I guess I don't deal with change well.

 
Comments:
Weird – I never would have noticed that had you not pointed it out. I like it!. Now Wired stacks properly with fits into the magazine pocket of my backpack. And stacks with The Atlantic and Seed instead of Dwell and ID. It never did feel right to put it with the design magazines.
