Magazine Subscriptions
I finally decided to subscribe to two magazines I read on a regular basis which are Maximum PC and Wired. I've been a little unimpressed with Maximum PC of late (though my general hardware skill is relatively high to begin with) but what disappointed me of late was how thin the January issue was...and how lacking the actual content was in the December issue. Any one else notice this too be it with the same or a different subscription?
What if any subscriptions do other people get?

I get Mountain Bike Action. Not really tech I suppose.
Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.
Re: Magazine Subscriptions
I only get Rolling Stone, and I am usually pretty happy with it although they suckered me into getting it in the first place (I forgot to uncheck a box when ordering tickets on TicketMaster or something). They recently switched to a standard magazine format (from a wider, newspaperish kind of thing). Not lacking in content as far as I can tell.
Re: Magazine Subscriptions
I receive PHP Architect magazine. Pretty consistent content.

A friend of mine who knew someone from Maxim Magazine hooked me up with lifetime of Maxim. The content is great

I'm considering subscribing to this. Would you recommend it?matthijs wrote:I receive PHP Architect magazine. Pretty consistent content.
Re: Magazine Subscriptions
Yes. I like it. There's always a couple of interesting articles in it. It's a mix of php news, news on open source projects, but also a lot of in dept articles about programming, OOP, design patterns, security, etcThe_Anomaly wrote:I'm considering subscribing to this.

And it costs only like $30/yr.
Re: Magazine Subscriptions
I should give that one a try.
