I read recently that Microsoft has their own web "zine" (how alternative
of them), and that it has a "no-scroll" policy imposed on the designers
of the zine. I thought this was a nice idea, but have not seen it. I
can't remember the name of the zine/URL (it was something very
Generation-X-sounding), but I do remember reading that you have to be a
member of MSN to access it.
