Business 2.0 gone, officially
The New York Times reports today:
“Business 2.0, a monthly magazine about the new economy, will be shut down rather than sold, its owners at Time Inc. have decided. The publication, which has been suffering from a decline in advertising revenue, will cease publication after its October issue, which will have a cover article on where to invest in a real estate downturn.”
Too bad, although we knew this was coming. Some of the staff will be moved over to Fortune magazine, and presumably so will existing subscribers.
This sucks. I really liked Business 2.0.

Me too. What sucks even more is that, about 4 months ago, I decided to NOT renew my subscription to Fortune and to renew my subscription to Business 2.0 for 3 years. I guess I’ll have to start liking Fortune.

Yeah I always kind of liked it. It was such an exciting mag back in the dot com days. I had a subscription back then.
