The magazine SkyMall, available to consumers on airplanes, announced today it would file for bankruptcy. The magazine blamed in-flight internet for taking away eyes on its pages.
Tweeters had a lot to say about it.
NO. NO. WHO DO I SEND A CHECK TO. RT @KatyStech: BREAKING: The SkyMall catalog has filed for bankruptcy. Details to come.

My dearest Skymall. No one bought from you but everyone knew you. You were the japanese trinket store of the sky.
