it seems like feed was on to something interesting with its latest special issue on urbanity:
“While the content of this issue will be familiar to longtime FEED readers — a group of essays and
conversations organized loosely around a theme, in this case the theme of the city — we have decided to experiment more with the design and the technology of the special issue format, which means tinkering with the “user experience” of the issue, as they say in the software world. We wanted to make “Street
Level” as fun to explore as it is to read (not unlike a city itself) — and to make it a launching point for other urban explorations. ”
alas. it would appear that my 56k modem is too slow to enjoy the fruits of their labor. o.k. rather, i’m too lazy to sit around for most of the ‘features’ to load.
