It has become more and more difficult to produce and it simply has not been living up to its potential. I've thought long about going to seasonal issues, and opening up the time between new issues to three months instead of two, but the articles get too stale in that time. Reader numbers drop in the second month of an issue's life already. No, the solution is to do something new and different. Rather than stay with the same old magazine format that goes back to Gutenburg's printing press, it is better to go with the more timeless steady state of the web.
Information gets updated piecemeal constantly rather than all at once.
The web is more than just words and pictures too. It is interactive and so will be the new Beacon . There is much to do and you can have a part in it whether as reader or as writer or as something that hasn't got a name yet. Keep checking in on us and see what we can do for you and vice versa.
