Has Conde Nast Finally Seen the Internet Light?

Is Conde Nast finally ready to set foot in the land called Internet? You will recall the company had a rough ride last November, all but shuttering Men’s Vogue and laying off more than three dozen staffers from CondeNet, its online division — a move which caused observers to ponder Conde’s “tortured relationship” with the Internet and habit of using its sites merely as a portal to sell more magazines. Well looks like this attitude may be getting an overhaul (and not a minute too soon!).
