Are we all reading i? The hideously-named new newspaper from the publishers of the Independent is the first new "quality" paper released in the UK for 25 years, and it's got a lot of promise. The basic idea seems to be a non-tabloid Metro, cutting straight to the chase for easy quick reading. Even the crossword only has five clues.
It's certainly a great premise – currently the only newspaper I buy is the Guardian on Saturday, because it usually takes me until halfway through Tuesday to finish reading it all. How anyone manages to get through more than one Sunday broadsheet is completely beyond me.
Anyway, I'm just reading the first issue of i now. Why not join me by picking one up on your way home from work or whatever? Then we can all get together later and talk about it behind its back.
