I know it is a strange headline for an editor’s column, but I am looking to draw attention to Stone World’s new Web site — launching this month — because I think it is the most comprehensive source for stone industry information that you can find.
While I do not think that print magazines are going away (a recent report states that printed magazine readership has actually grown over the past five years), there is no denying the advantages that a Web site offers as a source of industry information. First and foremost is the immediacy factor. When something happens that affects our industry members, Stone World wants to let you know as soon as possible, and the “Latest News” section of our site allows us to do exactly that.
