print vs web

As I began work on project 2, I realized how difficult it is maintaining a style between a magazine and website. Both medium serve slightly different purposes. One to give as much information on a page without it becoming crowded and with enough images to maintain interest. The other's mission seems to be the exact oposite. Less words, more images--because more info is only a click away. If only people would be ok with turning a page seveal times so each page could be clean and crisp. I will attempt to use a clean layout without too much on the page. I think the internet can teach us something about crowed jumbled messes and poor hirarchy. It learned these things from the world of print, and in the case of some magazines, it's time for an upgrade.
