On the other hand, Wired has always been trash. I used to adore starting in elementary school ever since I picked one up at a dentist reception area. Had a subscription all the way up until the end of high school. I loved the articles, the reply to readers at the back of the magazine, but most of all the gadget reviews a la Cool Tools by Kevin Kelly.
In retrospect it is a luxury lifestyle brand magazine with more advertisements than actual interesting content. The books always felt thick, but the damn thing would become a shitty pamphlet if you take out the ads.
