En este post, Jeff Jarvis se plantea si las revistas que se publican corren el riesgo de desaparecer, comenzando el artículo con el cierre de la revista Portfolio de Condé Nast. Jeff Jarvis no cree que las revistas estén 'condenadas', pero sí que cada vez será más difícil que surjan nuevas publicaciones y que si revistas 'pequeñas' caen, no parece probable que vayan a tener sustitutos.
"Mind you, I’m not saying that magazines are going to start dropping like flies and newspapers. When the economy comes back, many will still be able to sell their targeted, engaged audiences to advertisers for a premium … at least for awhile. Some may even manage to pull off a metamorphosis into community platforms and a few high-value titles — see: The Economist — can even grow. But when the weak ones die, there’ll be none to replace them."
