Atlantic Monthly sets its archive free
Posted by Cory Doctorow, January 23, 2008 2:20 PM | permalink
The fantastic Atlantic Monthly magazine has dropped its paywall effective today, switching its archives (which stretch 
all the way back to 1857!) to an ad-supported model. First the New York Times, then the Atlantic -- as someone who's 
spent the past eight years linking to stuff, I love this -- MORE STUFF TO LINK TO. Thanks, Atlantic Monthly!

    Beginning today, TheAtlantic.com is dropping its subscriber registration requirement and making the site free to 
all visitors.

    Now, in addition to such offerings as blogs, author dispatches, slideshows, interviews, and videos, readers can 
also browse issues going back to 1995, along with hundreds of articles dating as far back as 1857, the year The Atlantic 
was founded.

    We're pleased to bring The Atlantic before a broader online audience. We hope that the quality of its writing, the 
trenchancy of its insights, and the depth and thoughtfulness of its reporting will inspire many of our online readers to 
join the Atlantic family by becoming print subscribers.
