I used to love Focus magazine, years ago. It was an excellent science and tech/gadget magazine. Just enough of a balance between bite size chunks of zingy tech and pop science stories and more in depth coverage of one or two key topics.
Then they suddenly changed their strapline from 'blah blah science and technology magazine' to 'blah blah Men's Interests Magazine'. Stopped subscribing then and there. It's back to a science magazine now but last I looked it wasn't as good as it used to be. Far too slight. Not bad though...worth a glance, like.
