We Were Just Wondering ...

Have you heard those ads for Time Magazine? They all end by proclaiming that Time is "the world's most interesting magazine."
We were just wondering how they determined this. Did they do a survey? We decided to do our own survey among the visitor to our web site. We asked them, "In your opinion, what is the world's most interesting magazine?"
And the winners were:
National Geographic and Wired! The world's most interesting magazines!
We also had votes for:
Anarchy, Good Housekeeping, National Review, Nature, New Moon, Newsweek, Reader's Digest, Scientific American and Smithsonian magazine.
