The cover of the last Newsweek print issue
“Newsweek announced in October that, after nearly 80 years, it would shut down its print production due to the slump in print advertising sales, a common story among many print publishers in today’s rapid-fire online news cycle.
But this final print issue doesn’t signal closing doors for Newsweek. In 2013, it will move to an online-only publication called Newsweek Global. The new version will serve as “a single, worldwide edition targeted for a highly mobile, opinion-leading audience who want to learn about world events in a sophisticated context,” the company said in a post published a couple of months ago.”

Pictionary ads get new recognition

Do you remember these awesome Pictionary illustration ads from last summer? Well, I’m just saying that they just won not one, but two gold at CLIO Awards (and not incidentally, also a Gold Lion at Cannes last year). The ceremony is next Tuesday at the American Museum of Natural History in New York. Congrats to the agency, Ogilvy, Malaysia, they really deserve it, because this campaign is, as my favorite ad blogger, ex-copywriter, Mark ‘Copyranter’ Duffy wrote about it, so ‘perfect’, it has everything an award-winning and memorable ad needs. I love it!
