Time Inc. Unveils Tablet Magazine Concept

The popularity of the Internet has been hurting the print products, including magazines.  Their websites, no matter how popular, can only generate a fraction of ad revenue compared to how much publication companies earn on print.  Time Inc, publisher of various magazines including Time, People, and InStyle, come up with a series of digital magazines that will be formally unveiled soon.  People of TechCruch got a sneak peek of Time Inc’s tablet magazine based on Sports Illustrated.

The concept was the brainchild of David Link at the Wonderfactory, with all the magic developed using Adobe AIR.

The digital magazine was shown on a HP touchscreen tablet PC.  However, the product can also be viewed through iPhone or other tablet computers when that feature becomes available.  The tablet reveals the magazine’s cover on full screen and then users simply tap the screen to browse through pages, which can actually be rearranged so they can read however they want it.

The magazine also contains interactive features like letting the users share stories through e-mail or social networking sites, favorite a story, read related articles, and even watch live scores.  Check the demo here.

Readers wonder how this digital magazine would differ from its website version?  For one, the content is richer.  It also provides the feeling of reading the actual magazine, although presented more dynamically.  However, unlike the website, subscribing to digital magazine will require fees, but hey, we all have to earn from something, right?

Ubuntu Linux is Prime Time for your Business Desktop and Notebook Computing Environment

As a business consultant, web designer and photographer my technical know-how around doing system administration on my Microsoft desktop is limited and sometimes I do require the assistant of my computer engineering son to get it right. In a Microsoft Environment, keeping updated with respect to potential security breaches and patches is a constant vigil. The rigor of keeping current with OS updates, Norton updates and Spyware updates is time consuming. Valuable business hours each week are spend and lost on this task of self-administration dictated by the Microsoft Operating Environment.

So with the purchase of an IBM T40 (a tough notebook), increasing system administration time was not an option. This alone forced an serious consideration of Linux as an alternative operating environment. That was five years ago. Now an established Linux user, I can clearly profess the capabilities and benefits of Linux for small and large businesses, especially, when it comes to notebook deployment.

What Linux variant is best for small business and notebook deployment in your company?

As a small and medium business development manager with Sun Microsystems, exposure to Linux and the debate around its viability was a daily event. Questioning and challenging the virtues of Open Source (FREE) Linux versus Licensed Linux versions like Red Hat and Novell SuSE continues to this day . After years of personal use of Open Source (Free) Linux, I can never go back to running the Microsoft Operating Environment on my notebook. And once you can get Linux versions of Quick books, Quick Tax and Picasa (now available on Linux), there is no reason to stay in that perpetual administrative nightmare world of Microsoft.
