More on the Wall Street Journal's new design

Two weeks after it made its debut, the spritely and thinner Wall Street Journal still leaves a lot to be desired. It's just a little too weird for me. It doesn't spread anymore and that's one of the nice things about broadsheets. Put one on a clean kitchen table and digest (excuse the pun).

David Warsh has an excellent history of the WSJ. For newspaper junkies (there are still a few left) this is a great synopsis of where the Journal's been (including a Boston stretch) and where it's going (digital with a lot of subscriber support.)
