Web site that extols the virtues of failing celebrates six years

Failure magazine launches new blog

Phoenix, AZ — Six years is a long time to be a failure. But Failure magazine—www.failuremag.com—has been doing just that; succeeding at failing.

This month Failure celebrates six years of reporting, researching, analyzing and observing the subject of failure in all its splendid glory. Launched in the summer of 2000 at the height of dot-com mania, Failure magazine set its sights on changing the way the world looked at failure. A lot has changed since all those Internet companies went bust—but not Failure.

Covering history, science, entertainment, sports, business and more, Failure reports and uncovers what happens when people, places, and things fail—and sometimes succeed. "Failure is infinitely more interesting than success," says editor Jason Zasky. We fail a lot more than we succeed, and if we're smart enough, we learn from it."

What Failure has learned in its six years is that people like to talk about failure. In response, Failure launched a new blog at failuremagazine.blogspot.com, allowing more people then ever to comment on and critique Failure. And with six years of failure under its belt, is the magazine running short on ideas? "Absolutely not," says Zasky. "Failure owes a great debt of gratitude to the Bush Administration for keeping the subject of failure in the public eye—every day."

Failuremag.com was launched in the summer of 2000 at the height of dot-com mania. Covering sports, history, science, entertainment and business, Failure and its nationally-recognized writers cover failure—and its close relative, success—from a bold perspective that is insightful, informative and entertaining. Featuring the daily "Failure of the Day" and the "Book Report," Failure presents a unique take on its subject with a wide variety of stories from the past and present.

Failure Magazine LLC is a privately owned and operated media company featuring Failure magazine™ and FailureWear™.
