Andy has already mentioned iGizmo – the new free Web-Based Technology magazine available on-line.
A few weeks into my own subscription, iGizmo gets a big thumbs up! I’ve read “on-line” magazines before, and they can be a clumsy attempt at transferring the printed page to the web. iGizmo takes the concept a step further and exploits some of the potential of the web – and so includes videos, URL links and more. It’s reviews are light-weight, but the content is bang up-to date and it’s a fun 15 minute read each week.
What effect will this sort of on-line magazine have on the printed press? Well I can see it making a nasty dent in the buying figures from the casual magazine buyer at the newsagents, but for now – just like the e-book – I can’t see it replacing the printed word.
