ADVERTISING OVERLOAD
Went over to Juxtapoz today and was greeted by this (above). It’s almost impossible to find if there is any content as it looks more like Times Square than anything else. Oh, and when did they start reviewing movies and Nike shoes?

I know you mean a difference between the two, but its the same company. Advertising is what keeps this thing alive, yeah, and as long as they are not bought by conde, lets be realistic.. and giant robot is tiny. good mag, but tiny.

The magazine and website sell to two different kinds of advertisers.
There is no breathing room for their content online, because of that is the reason I wrote the blip.

I think Ed Templeton is the ad and Tag is the article.
