Tyler Brûlé - Mr. Zeitgeist - NYTimes.com

While everyone hailed the iPad as the savior of print, Mr. Brûlé put out a limited-edition newspaper for the slopes of Gstaad and the beaches of Cannes. While retailers rushed online, Mr. Brûlé opened a chain of Monocle boutiques, a micro-extension of the magazine’s shopper-as-curator ethos.

And while music migrates to the cloud, Mr. Brûlé started a radio station, with “an international playlist” that samples sounds “from Seoul to Stockholm.” (via Tyler Brûlé - Mr. Zeitgeist - NYTimes.com)

Review of the Year 2011: Art by It’s nice that

It’s nice that with a review about the year 2011 in art with mentions of course to the aformentioned Ai Weiwei, his worldwide exhibitions (with and without his whereabouts known) were a cementing accomplishment, and the unprecedented solidarity from all corners reminded us of the power of art for political good. Mike Guppy, one of The Graduates 2011 and statistically the most read article of the year on It’s Nice That (the term “viral” was never so apt) and finally the multifarious Jayson Scott Musson whose alter-ego Hennesey Youngman (or is it the other way around?) has astonished, delighted and educated us in equal measure.
