           About Fast Company:  A magazine published 10 times a year, and
           website FastCompany.com, cover the business of design like no
           other. Editor Robert Safian was named AdWeek's Editor of the Year
           last spring. While print publishing has been hit hard by the
           economy and experienced lower advertising spending as a result,
           FastCompany.com, under the leadership of publisher Christine
           Osekoski and executive editor Noah Robischon, has managed to
           triple traffic and revenue year over year. Fast Company is owned
           by Joe Mansueto, founder and owner of Morningstar, a publicly
           traded mutual-funds rating company.
