Farewell I.D. magazine

FINDINGS I’m pretty sad and disappointed to announce that I.D. Magazine will be closing up shop. F+W Media Design produces three of the most popular graphic design magazines: HOW Design, Print, and I.D. Now it’s down to two. I would have liked to see HOW Design go instead of I.D. I hate how HOW magazine is filled with tons of advertisements and annoying cover stock papers (but I guess those bring in the moolah). I’m pretty impressed, however, with what they have done with Print magazine. It has transformed into a pretty lovely publication and I’m pretty impressed with their attempt to build a strong online community.. Well…goodbye, I.D. You will be missed.
