Publisher Shutters Balance of Titles

Nearly three years after launching Nomad Editions [1], Mark Edmiston is all but calling it quits—providing yet another example of just how hard it is to start a mobile-only publication from scratch.
Edmiston, a former president/CEO of Newsweek turned media investment-banker, said he would discontinue Nomad’s three remaining titles. They are Uncorked, a wine magazine; Snooth Wine Buyers’ Guide, which was distributed to users of the Snooth online wine guide; and Hemmings Classic Wheels, which was created for the eponymous car marketplace.
