You’ve still got to monitor your personal brand, online and off.

Well yeah. You should always be there to pick up the stuff you wrote or being written about for something.

What I am sure of is this: I never buy magazines unless I’m in them.

There is much debate between how offline and online media are squaring off in terms of impact and of their corresponding market. Looks like online media is gaining the upper hand, yet IMO nothing’s for sure.

What nonsense! Print magazines will not go away. The industry will adapt to the new circumstances. We’ve heard it all before: CDs would replace gramophones (NOT), TV would replace radio (NOT), etc., etc. Print magazines will probably fall out of favor in the coming year(s), but will see a resurgence at some point in the future.

As of printing on paper, that needn’t be a problem. There are alternatives to paper, and some of the “paper” in magazines already consist partly of these alternatives.
