Lauren’s up in NYC this weekend for a work conference. So, I’ve been chilling in DC. This morning I wanted to get out of the condo. So… I went to Eastern Market, got a Sunday NY Times and found a corner of Peregrine Espresso where I could relax, read, and sip on a latte.
As much as I love technology, there’s something cool about the physical newspaper, especially when you can read all of it. When I read news online, I tend to just read things about my specific areas of interest. If I read the newspaper, I read everything that the editors find important.
A physical newspaper also forces you to slow down and just read. With a physical newspaper, I find myself more apt sit down and read a 1200 word article vs skimming over a few paragraphs on my iPhone in Flipboard on my way to the office.
Do you read a physical newspaper? Why do you love it?
