New at PBS MediaShift: Magpile, the Social Site for Magazine Lovers

I have a new post up at PBS MediaShift about Magpile, a new social network designed around the love of the print magazine. As founder Dan Rowden said:

“I don’t want Magpile to become somewhere that digital is ‘the thing,’ because I think print is really important…Personally, I prefer print. I want to push the print issues as much as possible. It’s more about the social impact of magazines.”

I look forward to following what Magpile does in future…an interesting project. Read more about it in my full story.
