We live in fast times, and no times are so fast than those of the monthly pubzine. Although we\u2019ve boasted of Zeus Plug<\/em>\u2019s loose-playing, throwaway element (\u201cWinner of Wellington\u2019s Best Beermat-cum-DW<\/em>-themed-Pubzine for 2006\u201d), the truth is that it\u2019s taken a lot of energy and no small amount of money bringing it out to a monthly schedule. Could we keep doing it at this rate in 2007? Probably we could after a four-month break; but we\u2019re not going to.<\/p>\n

Oh sit down. You\u2019ll still have Zeus Plug<\/em>! But like Ranquin in The Power of Kroll<\/em> we\u2019re bowing to the inevitable Tentacle of Progress. Zeus Plug<\/em> the pocket-sized publication is no more \u2013 Zeus Blog must live!<\/p>\n

So, you ask – what is a Zeus Blog and what will it do for my family? Well, it won\u2019t put bread on your table for a start. Worse, it won\u2019t put bread on ours. But it will do a few trickier things that your old A6 publication couldn\u2019t do: it\u2019ll be faster and more colourful, quicker to arrive and, best of all, interactive. That\u2019s right \u2013 this time your actual opinion of what you\u2019ve just read will now be able to be posted alongside the rest of the inane drivel<\/strike> content. That\u2019s the main benefit, alongside the sheer lightning speed of modern teckernology; everything else is just gravy \u2013 cartoons, pugnacious opinion pieces, regular head-to-head battles, and your favourite features of the old pubzine. Oh, and some reviews too, because there really should be somewhere for these to go that doesn\u2019t require a six-month publication lead-up, and we hear that Interweb thing is just the place.<\/p>\n

Paper is dead, baby \u2013 these days it\u2019s all done online!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
