I'd like to draw your attention to the Fall/Winter 2011 edition of Flurb, Rudy Rucker's Webzine of Astonishing Tales, which publishes short stories which are hard to place, both in topic as well as in terms of finding a publication.
I haven't read all the stories yet (I'm pacing myself, given that this is something which lends itself for reading on a mobile device when one is out of sensible reading material whilst on the move), but can comment on the following already:
Bruce Sterling - The Onset of a Paranormal Romance
A brave approach by Bruce, but this didn't work for me, and not just because of the open ending
A. S. Salinas - The Robert Armstrong Syndicated Newspaper Strip
Fun, if not very deep, and rather forgettable. Provided perfectly good travel entertainment.
Rudy Rucker and Paul Di Filippo - Fjaerland
A well written and entertaining Lovecraft et al spoof, apparently with a real location.
The current issue as well as the earlier one (entertainment for many trips!) can be found at the Flurb website.
