Reading Time Magazine on my Kindle

The other night the newsstand was closed when I wanted to buy Time so I could catch up on the post-inauguration news. So I downloaded a copy of the latest Time magazine to my Kindle for 99 cents. After reading it, I can now say that I do not like reading magazines on my Kindle.
 
First of all, what's up with the no pictures? (Though, to be fair, the Kindle can't really handle graphics that well.)
 
Second, the order of articles in the Kindle version of the magazine was totally different from the way the "paper" copy of the magazine is put together. A person gets used to seeing the Milestones section at the front of the magazine, not randomly when I'm 3/4 through the thing, thank you very much.
 
Third, I guess the way I read magazines is very different from how I read books. I am a skimmer, and in fact I often read magazines from the back to the front. The Kindle doesn't really lend itself to skimming all that well. And the tactile pleasure I get from holding a magazine and flipping through the pages and seeing all the shiny pictures (fine, yes, I admit it, I like the pictures. I'm shallow. Sue me) was just not there on the Kindle.
 
So no more magazines on the Kindle for me... but I did just download the fourth book in the Kitty Norville series. And... I just heard they are planning to maybe release a Kindle 2.0 into the wild within the next few weeks. I wonder how different it will be. I wonder if it will be better. I wonder if they will give me a discount on it because I already own one. I wonder if it will handle magazines better! I can't wait to see it. I fear I am turning into a bit of a Kindle slut.

Thanks to

Hey! I realize this is somewhat off-topic but I had to ask.

Does building a well-established website such as yours require a large amount of work?
I am completely new to operating a blog however I do write in my journal every day.
I'd like to start a blog so I can easily share my personal experience and views online. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or tips for new aspiring bloggers. Appreciate it!

Everything published made a bunch of sense. However, consider
this, suppose you added a little content? I mean, I don't wish to tell you how to run your website, but what if you added a title that makes people desire more? I mean "Reading Time Magazine on my Kindle" is a little vanilla. You should look at Yahoo's home
page and watch how they create article titles
to grab people to click. You might add a video or a picture or two to get readers interested about what you've written. In my opinion, it could bring your posts a little bit more interesting.
