I thought this would be an interesting topic.

What magazines do you read and/or subscribe to and why?

I'm subscribed to:
Wall Street Journal (not a magazine but that's OK) - I read it everyday but I only read the "Marketplace" and "Personal Journal" section of it. Maybe when I have more money to invest, I will actually pay attention to the "Money" section.

Business Week: I love the diversity of this magazine. It has articles about small businesses, big businesses, the government, etc. I also like the fact that the articles are only 1-2 pages at the most. My pseudo A.D.D. doesn't let me read an article more than a few pages

FSB (Fortune Small Business) My favorite business magazine. Great articles about small businesses. Unfortunately, the magazine only comes out once a month.

Not subscribed to but try to read every month:
Business 2.0
Fast Company
Fortune

There are magazines that I'm forgetting but my A.D.D. is telling me I've reached my word limit.

I read Entrepeneur, Inc, Business 2.0, Ping Zine!, Log Home Living, Log Home Annual, Log Home Buyers Guide.

I try to read these mag's from both the supplier point of view and the consumer point of view.

The suppler point of view lets me follow the trends, the news, and forecast future directions, to help me manage and plan effectively.

The consumer point of view lets me stay on top of what the consumer is looking for, what needs they are missing, and what styles / trends they are interested in.

My dad just felt generous one day and subscribed my brother and I to 5 magazines. The subscriptions jsut started too. They are, field and stream(we like to fly fish), MIT technology review(great magazine on future products and innovation), entrepreneur mag(my favorite), Smart money(i think that's the name, but it's an ok mag), and another money magazine, but i forgot the name.
