For lovers of text from magazines
Posted by Mike Sugarbaker at 12:27 pm on 11/21/2005
If you’re like me, you enjoy reading text articles in a web browser. So you’ll be happy to hear that we relaunched KeepMedia, and the relaunch includes a great deal more free stuff. For instance, right now, our archive page for the sporadically correct Reason magazine offers a great article on the war between Prozac and a society with an increasingly Calvinist medical outlook. And it’s free, for now and for always. You’ll see good stuff in Psychology Today, the Atlantic and sometimes Esquire as well.
This relaunch is a start, and no doubt contains things that (still) suck, but we worked hard on it and I’m pretty happy.

What determines which articles are fulltext and which are blurb-until-subscription?
(p.s. i understand the hoodwink complaint, but do you really need to use alert()? why not just enter text around or in the winkbox?)

A whole load of complex logic that took a long time to create, plus some editorial intervention. (Read: I am really not sure.)
(I tried that, couldn’t get it to work. This really isn’t going to make any sense to people who haven’t been here. And probably not to people who go there, even. *sigh*)
