The US airforce, according to wired has forbidden their staff to access any sites that are and appear to be blogs.

The main criterion is the site’s address. If it has “blog” in it (ie blogspot) then the site is off limits. Other sites will be automatically (somehow) recognized as blogs and the access will be forbidden. Of course WordPress is in the black list.

According to the announcements blogs reduce productivity, misinform and can also jeopardize national security?

Foreign magazine subscriptions

January 6, 2008 · Filed Under Living, News · 2 Comments

Once a month I open my door and I see Wired magazine sitting there waiting for me to read it. I have subscribed to it and there are two reasons for it. Firstly because it comes straight to my house, so I do not have to search it in specialized shops and secondly its by far cheaper than buying it off the self.

Generally speaking I think that a subscription in a international magazine is a good purchase. The cost combined with postage is not great. You will get an idea of prices by looking below a list with 9 international and famous magazines.

If you are interested for some other magazine do check the subscription costs as it is worth it.
