mental_floss magazine - Where Knowledge Junkies Get Their Fix

Description

mental_floss is built on a simple premise: People love to feel smart. But no one has enough time these days to achieve that admirable goal. That's where mental_floss comes in.

We take the chore out of learning by presenting information in a way that's quick, simple, quirky and fun. By covering everything from black holes to the Dead Sea Scrolls, then drenching our pages in facts and trivia, we've created a magazine that is winning tons of fans and creating buzz across the country and around the world.

A lot of the magazine's personality grew out of late-night bull sessions at Duke University. Somehow we'd always end up in a tiny room debating philosophy or talking about movies or arguing about whether the stegosaurus was the best looking of the dinosaurs (that one got pretty heated). But the real birth of mental_floss came in the Duke cafeteria, when it occurred to us just how great an educational magazine could be – if it were done right. That is, a publication that was funny and entertaining, but that also made you feel like you had learned something. When we went looking in bookstores for a magazine that matched this description, we couldn't find anything that fit the bill.
