The idea is to be about specificity, and the individuals within and moving and personifying the cultural, political and demographic trends. We love data. Data is dynamic. We are massively intrigued by the humans that make up the bar graphs. They—you—are our passion, and our priority.
Uh, what? I have absolutely no idea what any of that means. I hope the magazine will be better than the writing in the Kickstarter. Plus you need to spend at least $500 in order to get a copy. Anything less will give you insanely overpriced swag.

No, not even close. Star Trek, anyone? And even that might not have the crown.
At least this one doesn’t have any blatantly obvious attempts at misusing anyone’s trademark or copyright. It looks like everything should fall under fair use.
The world does _not_ need any more marketing

No. Just no.
Squbo.com
So it’s a less good search engine using more screen estate to show even less information. Excellent.
