Lindsey will spill her secrets on the Real World and bring copies of her book.

Don't worry if you're under 21—Ed cleared it with the manager and all are welcome. Editors and interns: Spread the word to any other intern-types you know!

TeenPeople.com to Merge Into People.com

Less than a year after its print edition closed, TeenPeople.com will cease to exist as an independent site by the end of the month. Visitors to the teen site will be directed to People’s, which will carry teen-focused stories that are branded as TeenPeople.com. People.com may pick up features unique to the teen site like polls and quizzes.

“We decided to do this because as we look at the activity on People.com, stories about teen-centric celebrities do very well, and we get a nice amount of teen-demo traffic,” said Mark Golin, editor of People.com. The thinking, he said, was, “We’ve got traffic on TeenPeople, People is a larger site, why not combine and have the teen traffic going to one place?”

Asked if the site were doing poorly, he said, “If that were case, we wouldn’t continue to use the brand.” TeenPeople.com will offer advertisers the chance to move their programs to People.com, a spokesperson said.

Philadelphia Media Holdings, parent of The Philadelphia Inquirer and Daily News, plans to launch a new monthly luxury and lifestyle publication in May, to be called Style & Splendor.

The title will be the 10th published by the company's subsidiary, Broad Street Magazines, and will be distributed to about 70,000 households in the Philadelphia region.

Philadelphia Media Holdings, an investor group led by advertising executive Brian Tierney, bought the Inquirer and Daily News from the McClatchy Co. last June.
