Online Newspapers and Magazines

Do you want to read the Kashmir Times, Berliner Zeitung, Pravda, San Francisco Chronicle, Time Magazine, Paris Match? These and thousands of other domestic and international newspapers and magazines are available on the web. Practically all are free and a few require registration - name and e-mail address only. For newshounds the experience can be exhilarating. During the Kosovo war it was possible to follow on a daily basis the opinions of columnists from several British dailies with the mere press of a mouse button - no need to run to Harvard Square to get newspapers a few days old. Try to get a copy of the Boston Globe (or even the New York Times) in Anycity, U.S.A. when you're on the road. With a laptop and an internet connection, you'll have it all. The contents of the online editions are similar to the print edition, with added value such as links to related stories, video clips, travel features, up-to-the-minute weather, sports features and links, photo gallery, business features (up-to-the-minute Dow, Nasdaq, and S&P 500, e.g.), and past articles (a fee is usually charged for these).

Will online newspapers and magazines replace the print editions? Not for a while and not before they look like, feel like, and are as portable as the print editions (try reading an online edition at the beach).

Don't read a long online article on the screen - browse the online newspaper or magazine, select the pages you want to read, and print it out for comfortable reading in your favorite chair.
