Now we can answer this: because Replicator has chosen the future. is increasingly evident that the ways of reading-is, where knowledge is disseminated, are changing. There are many nostalgic for the paper, the print-us among them, we confess, "but the launch of electronic devices, such as the iPad, confirms what some proclaimed: screen reading privileges the content and enables wider distribution and scope never seen before (and even in the near future might given a well deserved respite from the world's trees.)
Has anyone had to move recently? All of our music fits into a device that does not weigh a quarter of a kilo while our precious books require, oh, dozens of heavy boxes. How many use a library as a reference tool and how many use Google, with access to hundreds or thousands of specialized libraries around the planet? The press is dying and digital bursting, says Craig Mod, and all are confused, but the fact is that it is building a historical heritage that weave speeches and revolutionize not only the ways of reading a text, but to read and understand the world. We want to be part of that.

The chances to interact with our readers are older, both on this site and in the social networks that share. All contents can be discussed, and our authors will also participate. Hopefully this will raise the level of debate.
The magazine will continue to cultivate the values \u200b\u200bthat have tried to be faithful: plurality, intelligence, critical, profanity, management of current issues (and at the same time with a long-lived), openness to different styles and a wide variety employees.
