Whole Earth Review is dead

According to Cory Doctorow, writing in BoingBoing, the Whole Earth Review -- "Access to Tools and Ideas" -- is dead in the water and unlikely to revive any time soon. I'm kind of aggravated, as I had an article due in their next issue, the Singularity issue. WER published Vinge's seminal essay back in 1994 and probably deserves more credit than it ever actually got for kick-starting the green tech movement.

Anyway, one mag's loss is one blog's gain, I hope, and if nobody screams at me I'll update and post the whole 3000 word piece I wrote for WER on the topic of Panopticon Singularities on CybDem next week.
