I have to agree with you, when it comes down to the internet, its all about the ease of distributing information about whats happening RIGHT NOW. Take most of the technology blogs, and even HN for example. A great portion of what's on here or coming through the blogs is an overview or look at whats happening right now, today, or information about what somebody did TODAY. I also use these sources everyday as a primary source of what's going on. However, when I want a full fledged story about not only what is happened but what has happened and why it happened I tend to go to other sources, the Wall Street Journal for example. However, what you need to notice is that even the more complex periodicals are also moving online. Newsweek, the WSJ itself, the New York Times, and so on and so forth. I think it truly is just a matter of time before even these move to a totally online system. No more Time Magazine delivered every day to your mailbox, instead its in your inbox.
