For instance, the optimal length paragraph on the web is a little shorter than what would be optimal for a journalist working on a newspaper or magazine.

Not really. Magazine, yes. Newspaper not so much. Many stories from journalists are filled with 2-3 sentence paragraphs. I guess you could write all one sentence paragraphs for the web, but I wouldn't. :D

Magazine writing is a bit different--although many of the same concepts apply.
