Firstly, sorry for my bad english (french peoples are bad in english, that’s a fact), and for my very late comment.

But after some UK EDITIONS issues, i feel diferent about it. Wereas some articles are picked up from the US edition, i found this new edition very “fresh”.

I buy WIRED Us in an “import -press shop” since several years, and since 4 mounth, i buy the us AND the UK edition.

So please, keep going on that way guys!

I, being in Canada, subscribe to the US version (I’ve been subscribing, for, what, 12 years now…), but I will pick up the UK version (it’s fairly easily available in the big mag ‘shops’ which carry lots of imports). I recently flipped through the UK version and found it had a different ‘feel’ to it. As a Canuck it was funny, I could feel myself ‘positioned’ (reader-taste-wise) right in the middle of both mags!

I much prefer the US version, and am not happy that several articles from previous editions of Wired US are reprinted this month (and more to come next month).

I used to get Wired US from Borders but they’ve now switched to the UK version. Anyone know where you can pick up the US version?

Failing that, will have to subscribe…

I gave it a go…I really did…It just feels and reads differently to the US version, why I can not say, but I will be subscribing to the US version by mail. Sorry Wired UK.

It is already Wired US lite. The Coraline ‘blip’ was a far better article in US 17.02, and the Cool Your Jets was a direct reprint from 17.01. That isn’t even past Start section. I now have to work out how to get the US version back in my hands.

I quite liked it actually – although I was annoyed when the cool flourescent sticker on the front fell off somewhere on the way back to work.

LondonLee – can you let me know if you ever run that Angelina Jolie piece?

A technology and futurist magazine written on paper and distributed by diesel powered trucks. How very 1975.Can’t wait to see the cuniform version on mud bricks distributed by ox-carts..

Great timing by Conde Nast, hosting an expensive party the day before decimating Wired.com and Ars Technica. You go, Newhouses!
