This is going to be the shortest posting for a while but it might just be the most important. Click on this link to Jeff Gomez's excellent Print is Dead blog. Perhaps Manolis Kelaidis is to the digital world what Allen Lane was to mass-market paperbacks, Paul Hamlyn to colour illustrated books, or Robert Maxwell to scientific publishing.

Thanks for the Kelaidis link. Fascinating from what I've seen in a few minutes. Must learn more.......

But thankyou for mentioning Cap'n Bob. Much as he is demonised, I don't think people realise how he has influenced scientific publishing. Without him, it would have been very different........I think we would have been worse off.

Worse off -- as in the er Mirror Group pensioners?
