What if aliens zap the internet ... permanently? Should I learn Flash and ActionScript or dig a bombshelter? Get a deckhand position with Greenpeace? My editor thinks there will always be newspapers and can't ... won't think any different. He is not reserved to the fact that the internet has become an economically viable threat. I try to put myself in his cowboy boots, but snap back too quickly to even imagine where he's coming from. I started out in paste-up myself long ago, but could always illustrate and could go old-school if computers disappeared from the face of the planet. I know 2 pt. tape, X-Acto and waxers.

Siempre me han interesado los temas que tengan que ver con las religiones, creo que también conllevan una responsabilidad para no herir susceptibilidades.

Saludos a todos, queridos colegas.

Hello friends of Scandinavian news design -the first 2009 issue of SNDS Magazine has finally been sent to the printers and will be delivered to its faithful subscribers this week.

Also, there are the usual thoughtful columns by the chairman and the editor; a three page reportage from the judging of the competition in Billund – including a new extraordinary service for newspapers in need of help on design issues; an interview with a designer who really isn't a designer; we reveal the winners in the Scandinavian "Photo of the Year" contests, and bring you a guide to a 100 ways to work smarter, not harder. Ahm, I think that's about it.Delve into it all – wait for the print issue, or download the final pdf at the (not so) secret url: www.pryds.com/sndsdownloads.Best, Lars
