Le Gaian is a magazined targeted towards the 20 to 30-year old style-conscious technocrati.
That is to say, someone who loves their bluetooth as much as their Prada and Gucci.
Modelled after magazines such as Flare, Le Gaian attempts to speak to the younger, more eclectic crowd by acknowledging that consumer demographics are now based around subcultures instead of physical location.

The Gaiaverse, made by Gaians, for Gaians. It observes the drama, the marketplace rises and falls, and the vast, yet interwoven community between the people of Gaia. Modeled after those trashy tabloids and chick mags, the Gaiaverse knows how wide and expansive this place can be, and portrays the chaos and confusion, one article at a time.

In case you can't tell, this is largely done, while I was in General Discussion

Wow! I love the differences in both of these! biggrin le Gaian's aimed towards the a more mature, fashionized (I don't htink that's a word) gaians, and gaiaverse seems like a magazine aimed towards gaming gaians! biggrin I love it. I still haven't done mine yet. Eheh....need to find time. Oh well, I still have half a month!
