Less is more
: Rafat Ali says the success of tabloid (excuse me, compact) editions of newspapers has implications for digital media:
…on one hand, this print movement has been influenced indirectly by the Internet media, where shorter stories and jazzy layouts have been influenced by Internet. You can extrapolate other influences form here…
On the other hand, it bodes well for e-paper technologies, on a trend level. Now it is up to the technology to evolve enough for this…
I think it also comes down to this: We’re busy. We want convenience. Shorter is better. Shorter is smarter.
