From Internet to print

With the exodus of print to online, it's nice to see an interesting twist on the movement. As posted on magCulture, duo Ben Terrett and Russell Davies have taken a selection of blog posts and Twitter feeds and published them as a tabloid newsprint publication to beautiful effect. Surely it's not a viable commercial solution, but the creative thinking about form is possibly the type of thinking that could stave off the end of print (if you in fact believe the end is nigh). Print is not the internet and the internet is not print. Put in the effort to make print enjoyable, to make it an experience unlike another, and readers will stick around.
