I wasn't asking about the difference between the proposition for advertisers, but for readers. In my opinion, "feel-good puff pieces" seem to sneak onto Foliomag.com far more than they show up in the magazine, but maybe I'm looking at this wrong... Could you please elaborate on the definition of a "feel-good puff piece" and provide an example or two? And - more to my point - do you believe readers want your website to be something different than they want your magazine to be or are you seeking out a different reader?

Folio: Magazine is the "how-to," Foliomag.com is the "what-is." Foliomag.com reports the news, not the feel-good puff pieces some advertisers seem to increasingly feel entitled to.
