In the latest Wired (Feb. 2008) they talk about things that suck.
The page where they talk about annoying magazine subscription cards is where they jammed the bulk of their own subscription cards.
Har Har. You know what is also funny? Putting those blank subscription cards in the mail so Wired has to pay postage.
To be fair, it’s nice that Wired realizes that “blow in” cards suck, even though they won’t change their practices any time soon. It would just be nice if they could just stop putting them into issues received by paying subscribers.
