Condé Nast Art Director – Andrew Diprose 2009-05-16T21:38:35+00:00 This post is somewhat late, I know, as the UK edition of Wired magazine is already into its second issue. So, I bought this first issue, remembering the relatively short-lived attempt to launch a dedicated UK edition a decade or so ago, and wondered how this version might be better than that and, more importantly, how it might remain relevant to a UK audience without losing sight of a world perspective. I am delighted to say I read it almost without break from cover to cover, noting in particular some fine pieces from the ever stimulating Russell Davies, whose own blog has been <a href="http://www.dynamolondon.org/projects/47">celebrated on this site</a> before, an engaging article which (almost) managed to clarify the reasons for the recent global economic collapse, and a nice insight into the new media policies at the BBC, which in itself satisfies the global vs. local issue for me. Anyway, I'm giving it an enthusiastic endorsement. Must dash, I've got another issue to read. Long live print... ;-) 211 0 Editor – David Rowan 1 0 1 0 2010-03-06T13:39:35+00:00 21 390 http://www.wired.co.uk russell davies 2007-02-21T14:25:20+00:00 Russell Davies writes some of my favourite blogs. His survey of (mainly London-based) cafes is a treasure trove for everyone who loves a quality fry-up: egg, bacon, chips and beans! You should also visit "a good place for a cup of tea and a think", if you don't feel like a full-on greasy meal. His other blogs are well worth a read too - go, check them out! 47 0 Russell Davies 2 2 4 0 2010-03-11T17:09:23+00:00 58 619 http://russelldavies.typepad.com/eggbaconchipsandbeans/
