Red Herring Magazine Shuts Down

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the no-end-to-pickled-herring-in-sight dept.

Makarand writes "Red Herring Magazine is closing its doors and joining the ranks of magazines that rode the dot-com wave and then crashed. Red Herring's March issue delivered to subscribers two weeks ago will be the magazine's final issue. The technology meltdown evaporated the magazine's advertising revenue forcing it to lay off most of its staff and finally close doors."

    BUT ... isn't this was free enterprise and competition is all about? I'm sorry to see them go, but nothing lasts forever. It may be a long time, but slashdot will one day cease to exist, I'm not being a downer here, but these are just plain old facts.


    There are very few geeks who want to read things on paper (bite me if you're one of the geeks who likes paper shit). And this is actually the first time I've ever heard this magazine mentioned in quite some time, you sure they're just NOW dead??
