I'm a magazine junkie. Seriously, it's an illness. I probably spend more money on magazines and newspapers than I do on food and clothing. And that's not counting the mags I read for free as I drink my chai in the Border's Cafe.
Advertising Age has looked at the magazine covers from 2006 and picked the 10 best. Some of these I can't complain about. The New Yorker cover is simple and powerful, the Time cover is clever, and the Wired cover manages to look good and have someone on the cover that sums up the year (and he's hacking an iPod!). But the Swindle cover is at least two years out of date, and the Vogue and Bicycling covers are just plain boring (they must have had other covers during the year that would have been better choices).
Do you remember any covers that caught your eye in 2006?
1. How about the most recent Time magazine cover with the reflective surface for its Person of the Year issue? That was pretty eye-catching and yet simple.
