 Posted: 04/05/04 - 10:51 Post subject: how do you read magazines
I usually scan the whole issue to see what I will like. Then start at the letters pages to see what people are writing about.
Then usually read every article in order front to back.

Depends on the magazine and the situation. If I'm at the doc's office I will read only certain articles in order of interest.
At home, I'll read it cover to cover.

Strangely enough, I flip through them from back to front and read articles as they catch my eye.

Same here. Are you left handed? I read somewhere that people who are left handed are prone to read magazines that way.

That would be me too. And for some reason, I like the editor's columns most of the time too.

I figured you would be a skip-to-the-end type of guy 
Only because you once expressed displeasure at those of us who read ahead to figure out how a novel ends before we're done reading it.
