Fast Company
For a business magazine, Fast Company is innovative in its editorial approach to "technology, management, design and social responsibility" (from wiki). I would like to say that FC is the Wired version of Forbes. It's hip, yet serious; appreciates green money as well as green methods.
This was a redesign of the magazine's cover and features. The first feature is an article about Perceptive Pixel, a multi-touch screen that is pretty much interface-less. Using your fingers, the sensors process each finger's position and pressure to replace any need for peripherals. Before the iPhone, before HP's touch screen computer, Jefferson Han developed this amazing technology. Now, Perceptive Pixel has been used by the government as well as CNN's "Magic Wall" for the election '08 coverage.
The second feature spotlights a company, WEST, that reuses old oil derricks and converts them to wind turbines in the ocean. It's one of the many ways that entrepreneurs are capitalizing on "going green." Stories like this show what type of business magazine Fast Company wants to be.
