I would really like to wish British Vogue a happy 90th birthday today. The story of Vogue and its prestigious front cover can teach New Media companies a great deal.

We often talk about websites needing to engage their presumed audience with a site design that invites them in and is aesthetically pleasing in addition to being functional.

If you consider the front cover of a magazine to be analagous to a website's home page - it completely changes your view of website design and makes you really think about aesthetics. Thank you British Vogue and happy birthday!
