Why did Triad Living Magazine go totally ONLINE ?

Newspaper industry leaders are frogs in a pot. The water’s starting to boil, and it's time to jump. Only 19 percent of 18-34 year olds read a daily newspaper; 44 percent of them go to a web news portal. Broadband penetration has reached 57%. The blogosphere is doubling every 5 ½ months. Search provides instant access to the world’s information. User-generated content has turned the authority model of institutional media on its head. Peer-to-peer networks, tag clouds and reputation engines are fundamentally changing how people engage with content and communications.

LIFE Magazine Drops Print for Online

Time Inc. Chief Executive Ann Moore said. “The market has moved dramatically since October 2004 and it is no longer appropriate to continue publication of LIFE as a newspaper supplement.”

Trends Towards Dropping Print Advertising

The "Winning Online Manifesto" says the trend is clear and immediate action is required to avoid painful contraction, layoffs, and closings.

Printed Subscriptions Dramatically Decreased

The San Jose Mercury News has certainly felt the impact of readers moving online. Remember this quote from my March 2006 post;

At its peak in 2000, The Mercury News had a Sunday circulation of 326,839 subscribers, according to the newspaper. Last September, the company counted 278,470 Sunday subscribers, a drop of about 15 percent. Revenue from the company's help-wanted ads fell to $18 million a year from more than $118 million, according to the paper. The newsroom was whittled to 280 people from 404, a 30 percent decline.

Most Magazine Publishers are Moving Totally Online

Magazine publishers, for the most part, have already made the transition to online.  Many people still read many of the same magazine and newspaper titles ...but most do it online.
