As all subscribers to the Icon Analyst must be aware of now, the Analyst is
entering its last year of publication. One can easily understand why the
Icon Project has thrown in the towel. Publishing a paper newletter is a
daunting, time consuming task, even if you have a small circulation. With
its current subscriber base, it would be hard to justify devoting project
resources to the Analyst.
As an alternative, why not turn the Analyst into a web page? This is the
direction that Windows magazine has taken. At this point, we can safely
assume that all Icon Analysts have access to the web. The web page would
require less printing, no postage, and would not have to updated on a
regular schedule.
I, for one, would really appreciate an Icon Analyst web page. Would you be
interested in supporting / reading such a page?
