Last night my mailbox was stuffed with publications. I get lots of magazines, journals, etc. I am constantly getting input from people on what they read and like (usually it is other terrific blogs) and am getting asked what I read.

My blog list is a great source of news and ideas — but I still live on paper.

The following are a list of publications that I subscribe to (meaning they arrive periodically in paper form via snail mail) and I have ranked ordered them from most-important (the Wall Street Journal) to least-important (note: even the least important ones still have value to me — otherwise I would not subscribe to them at all):

Wall Street Journal
Economist
Atlantic Monthly
The Week
Forbes
Business 2.0
Fast Company
Foreign Affairs
Newsweek
CIO
Fortune
US News and World Report
Time
Foreign Policy
Weekly Standard
The New Yorker

Note that I pay for every one of these publications except for CIO and Foreign Policy (I get those for free).
