- Finally, magazines are warming up to the multiplatform pleasures of pixelated flesh. As Sports Illustrated’s last, best chance to turn its recent advertising woes around, the annual Swimsuit Issue needs to mint as much money in as many venues as possible. So how about selling videos for $1.99 a piece through the iTunes store? Why not? Meanwhile, over at Conde Nast, they’re thinking about tossing its various brands on TV again. But why bother? It’s not like Vogue will ever run out of ad pages to sell. Oh wait, they have!
- Someone has the date wrong at AmEx Publishing. From the producers of Travel + Leisure comes Travel + Romance, a joint production with online wedding powerhouse The Knot. Five hundred thousand romantics who have cash to burn should expect it in their mailboxes in April. (But why didn’t they announce this tomorrow?)
- Jossip reads Bonnie Fuller so you don’t have to. Until they get bored and lose interest, the wags there will run selected passages from Fuller’s magnum opus, titled Fiona Apple-like The Joys of Much Too Much, Go for the Big Life — the Great Career, the Perfect Guy, and Everything Else You’ve Ever Wanted (Even If You’re Afraid you Don’t Have what it Takes). They’re starting with the introduction, so do try to keep up.
- Don Logan tells all to Advertising Age: Time Warner doesn’t need to go on the juice, and if the magazine execs there think they have it bad now, they should try picking cotton instead.
