Rich in Ideas October 29, 2008 design guy (USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Joe Mansueto, founder of Morningstar, has been a lifelong advocate for design and its value in business. He carries that belief over to his Fast Company magazine. It brings design and good writing together to give us a look into many of the most passionate minds in business today. br / br /Magazines, thanks to the subsidies of advertising, remain one of the great bargains out there and this is a prime example.

Exceptional resource; it should be part of every manager or business owner's monthly reading list. Topics are well thought out, practical and they always get you thinking about how they affect you. Consistently exceptional.
Interesting articles, not too many ads May 31, 2008 Edward Lucero (California) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Magazines are 99% ads these days, and 1% poor content. br /This is not the case so much. There are ads, there's bad contents, but overall it's pretty informative, and not too commercial. Interesting insights.
In a Post-Business2.0 world. May 28, 2008 R. L. Mudgett (Tegucigalpa, HONDURAS) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I was pleasantly surprised with Fast Company. After Business 2.0 closed, I thought I couldn't find a worthy replacement, but I did in Fast Company. Very good, even though Wired is still better.

I haven't received it yet, but I didn't expect to. On magazines it might make sense for you to send your review requests at a later date...
