Just to add to your points on the website - we will be enabling people to point at articles, for sure. The magazine editorial will be available online - though we'll be wanting to push the audio and video material higher in the mix. And there will of course be RSS feeds etc. aplenty :) We're just at an earlier stage of development with the Monocle web and broadcast angle, so bear with us, and do check in again soon. Best, D.</p> Hey Peter, thanks for the review. Just to add to your points on the website - we will be enabling people to point at articles, for sure.

After all, my Economist is easily furled up to compress space. Monocle is a solid block, and less easily transported, which would seem to be a flaw.</p> A practical question though: if it is aimed that the jet-set, in-flight class of global road warriors, is not a little large and bulky to carry around?

I kind of like Monocle and, in fact, went on to defend the magazine against the many decenters. Here's hoping it'll last longer than Line or Spruce did.</p> It’s always nice to be quoted but I’m afraid my commentry has been taken out of context.
