I’d like to do something like Omni Magazine

I was looking through some old stuff I've collected over the years and found some old copies of Omni Magazine.

If you don't remember or have never seen it, it was a blend of science and science fiction in one magazine. A place to explore ideas. I loved it.

Publications like this just don't seem to exist these days. Flipping through these old issues I'm struck by how optimistic it is. There are articles like "Immortality: Live forver in a machine". When I go to a newsstand today everything is so cautious.

I'm tired of cautious.

I'd like to collaborate on something like this. Obviously it would be done online .. not in print and could include things like video, blogs, user feedback/forums, etc.

Anyone interested in brainstorming on this idea?
