Well, I think for a while at the beginning the newness of it made it 
exciting. I mean, if I look back at those early issues, there really 
aren't *that* many projects in there that I care about. But having never 
really seen anything quite like it, I loved it anyway. I still do love 
it from a distance ;~). I just can't say that I'll buy every issue (I 
had a subscription for the first 2 and a half years -- don't ask how 
that happened, it's a boring story). As it stands now, if I pick up an 
issue and there's, say, at least one really interesting project and 
maybe a couple good articles, I'll probably buy it. But that hasn't been 
happening so much recently.

On the other hand, their books are seemingly picking up the pace a bit. 
I just hope they can keep up with consistently good quality and content.
