Reading from Paper

without comments

A lot was written about the decline of newspaper, most of it correct. The fact is that newspaper as source of immediate news is archaic and the news organizations did not do enough to adopt new approaches.

However, the old fashion that we are, we love to read from paper – books and newspapers. Personally when ever I have the choice of reading from the screen or to hold the paper and read from it I’ll choose the latter.  I like and use the new capabilities of the Internet, for example I buy many of my books through Amazon or Israeli on-line book stores . Never the less it is never as satisfactory as walking into book store (and small and old one are better) smelling and touching the books.

The only way I know to keep having the newspapers and magazine we like is to subscribe to them and so we did. We subscribed to the Wall Street Journal (paper, not the online) and The Atlantic . If you still want to have paper news and not only electronic one go and subscribe to your favorite one – there is no other way.
