Macworld Senior Editor Christopher Breen checks in on some of the changes at Macworld magazine, how they are affecting him, and how they will impact what you read going forward. Those changes are not unique to Macworld; Chris and host Chuck Joiner cover the challenges of publishing in the Internet age and why the search is still on for a functional monetary support system. The conversation turns to social media, the proliferation of snark, and how that affects everyone’s perceptions.
