What happened to ReadyMade?
By tmgeorgoWhat happened to ReadyMade? The site hasn't changed in forever, the online store is gone, and there is just a tidbit of news on the forums about the magazine HQ moving from San Francisco to Des Moines.

Very cool, thanks for the tip. Glad to hear blogging will resume and the workshops at the new HQ look awesome!

No, I think they just moved the magazine to Des Moines and most of the original staff didn't go with it. I found this SFGate article that has the best info on the situation. On a personal note, I'm willing to give the new staff the benefit of the doubt on the new direction. I know it won't be the same as it was before, but I don't want to dismiss it out of hand.

I was just thinking the other day I had not seen a new issue of the magazine in awhile. I checked the site and it had not been updated. Did they really shut down? First Budget Living, then Blueprint, then Domino and now this?
