In Need: Signal to Noise

It keeps up the quality control, too — when you're paying for printing, you better believe you're looking twice at every word. I mean, there's a lot of stuff on the Web I can't even read, it's so bad. It's free, but you get what you pay for. I guess I could try to be one of the exceptions, but my heart just wouldn't be in it.

You know, whenever a paper magazine folds, there's always some snotty guy on some blog somewhere talking about the passing of "dead tree" media. Well, if you make a product that people like enough to keep around, and then pass on to the next guy or sell it on eBay a few years down the line, I feel like you've justified your carbon footprint. And what, do you think computers and servers run on solar power? Not yet!
