Business 2.0 magazine is dead, literally. Tech Crunch has a report on the final issue - the October edition.

Since the title is dead I’d suggest we should stop carrying it immediately and use the space for the living. While a few punters will buy the last issues to collect, they will be in the minority. I’d prefer Australian importers of a title which has been killed overseas to immediately cease importing.

That said, it is sad Business 2.0 is closing. It was a good title. I say was because the title we have today is nothing on what I first found back in 1999/2000. Back then I found it invaluable. Today, it is a servant of advertisers. Peter Kafka has some comments on the reasons for its demise at Silicon Alley Insider.
