Yahoo! Picks - bringing you the best of the Web since 1995

Fans of The New Yorker are a dedicated bunch. They relish its arrival every week, check the bylines, and then dive right into a 20,000 word piece. It's no wonder this passion for a beloved magazine has spawned a site devoted to its pages past and present. Whip-smart writer Emily Gordon obsessively blogs about all topics great and small related to her favorite periodical. We were enthralled by discussions related to cartoons, literary giants, and nitpicky grammar. If you want to skim the highlights, we recommend checking out discussions with "The New Yorker" librarians, the always-debatable Pick of the Issue, and regular plunges into the history of the esteemed publication. Whether you're a cover-to-cover obsessive or just a grazer passionate about "Talk of the Town," you'll find Ms. Gordon has created a delicious companion to America's best magazine.
