Life Magazine
is making a comeback after almost 10 yrs away from the newstands. It will make its debut today online.

In addition to photos of breaking news events, the Life.com editors have created thousands of photo groupings — a slideshow of Hawaiian beaches through the decades, or baseball players with odd names, — that will change at least once a day. Pictures can also be shared through email, posted on facebook or twitter or you can just print them off to hang on your fridge. Life.com, is an online-only entity. Their first official cover will don the teen pop sensation Miley Cyrus. plans new additions in coming months, including a feature called MyLife that allows users to assemble a timeline of their lives in photos.
Life.com should be an interesting site for the people that enjoyed the actual magazine. Go check out the site, send some photos to friends and have a clicking good time..
