Are we all just getting our info online, or do the print pubs really have a place?

I never read them online. For these types of Mags i prefer print. Shanghai Talk is definitely under rated. Has some interesting, quirky articles. The new Wine writer at Shanghai Talk is a bit of a tool though Smile

I don't read City Weekend anymore, nothing in it of interest. SH is a strange one. I like it, but there never seems to be much in it.

hmmm, i actually LIKE City Weekend more and more. used to not be focused on SH at all but recently it has become a very respectable publication and seems to be run like one. That's looks and feels like a CHinese magazine so i really don;t like its trying to cover so muchh stuff AND pushing to charge when other magazines such as Talk annd SH are free. Shanghai Talk is most improved and i am liking it more and more.
