No Kidding

Sad news, handful of you. The Printed Blog, the newspaper (leaflet?) that plucked items from the world wide web and printed said posts on paper, is now dead. Founded by Josh Karp six months ago, the idea of this interesting yet bizarre publication, as TechCrunch's John Biggs put it, was "akin to pressing MP3 podcasts onto vinyl for those who still used a Technics turntable." But, due to lack of investor and reader interest, the blog that you could find at a newsstand is no more. If you'd like to check out the Printed Blog on your personal computer device, you can "download" issues of it here.

I always thought it sounded like a practical joke.

That thing was a joke. Yeah, let's go and take things that are already found online and put it back to the print model and hand it to people as they get off Muni! The thing didnt even have a connection to SF, all the ads were from Chicago...
