Great

Many consumers do not wants to buy print magazine, especially when recession cuts household spending. Everyone needs solutions. We need something for everyone.

James on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 4:49 am 

Kim, That is not entirely true- many people still appreciate being able to hold a magazine in their hands and to keep it on their coffee tables for later.

Magazines are actually not in as bad a state as newspapers, and targeted and local content are still in high demand.

I find it hard to believe that in a day and age of electronic emails, texts, and twitters that people still want to cling to paper magazines. As a photographer I finally jut switched over to digital a year ago.

But, even I can see that the wave of the future in media is going to be digital. Newspapers are going out of business, magazines are declining by leaps and bounds, meanwhile the internet has surpassed every other form of information and entertainment.

Nice Initiative. :)

Weather you like it or not I think the trend of digital magazines going mainstream is inevitable.

Especially as tablets continue to evolve and gain popularity. I can definitely see myself using something like the reuters pad to view a magazine while sitting on my couch or wherever I may be.

But I do agree that it doesn't feel right viewing a digital mag on my desktop.

roger on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 4:57 am 

Not a big fan of digital magazines in particular. Unless the mag has been designed / laid out for the screen or pdf.

peter on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 4:58 am 

I love the idea of on line magazines I think we can all learn more faster on the computer. good going!!!!!!!!!!!

Rebecca on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 5:01 am 

Correct kim

People like to collect paper magazines, which is why I don't think they will ever be replaced by e-magazines.

Erik on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 5:03 am 

Digital Editions can be effectively used to outright or to supplement your web and print model.

reach international audiences… digital editions have huge potential. Waiting for urs edition.

martha on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 5:05 am 

I read so much online both, news etc. All free, there is a mind set that “Free” is online and at this point I wouldn't pay for anything online.

However, I will still pay for print magazines. When I read a magazine, I like the flexibility of NOT using technology and lounging where I want to be.

Remember, your labor is not in vain. Run with the vision and watch the doors that will be opened for you.

James cooper on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 5:11 am 

I would be very interested to see this data on how readers are happy about digital magazines. I have yet to hear of anyone who reads them, and I am not a fan of the format, but I would be happy to be proven wrong.

santhil on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 5:12 am 

we have developed a digital forex magazine and we had very good feedback from our readers regarding the format, editorial, user experience. the main idea is to create content dedicated for online, not just put the print edition into digital.

Milena, Digital Editions can be effectively used to outright or to supplement your web and print model.

I think that paperless mags are the way to go, but sharing subscriptions with friends and family members helps to lighten the load.

alexia on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 5:28 am 

it’s paper-free, it should be cheaper than the printed version. The Ecologist might seem like a heavy going read to some, but it sure packs all the facts in along with a fat slice of good humor.

frank J. on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 5:33 am 

Too right mate – I adore the CEOWORLD magazine, don’t get me wrong, but if it’s read too late at night, it’s the stuff that nightmares are made of!!!!!!

Why to write about MJ, personally i don't want to read about something here, what i can find on skynews or cnn…. OFF TOPIC

Before it was focused to business and tech, don't be a business week—LOL…

Tim augestien on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 5:36 am 

Thats right frank,

Hope Milena should watch out. I know exactly what you mean.

I actually find it very difficult and annoying to read one extensive byline on Michal Jackson. I don’t know why, but I do have to mumble, mumble…..things off……mumble mumble.

Never mind; we all have our vices

Milena Golda on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 6:16 am 

Dear Tim, Frank, Alexia and Haris,

Tim and Frank you comment on MJ and nightmares made me laugh. For the one with “week nerves” I recommend to read our news in the morning. Promissed, we will deliver what you are asking for – Business & Technology news. Still big challenge is before us to wrap things up. We do appreciate all your suggestions.

Alexia you see CEOWORLD is ecologically friendly and goes green without print out edition. Izabela will think about “cutting cost on paper” when price will be definitely fixed.

Haris your idea of sharing subscriptions with friends and family members is very intresting. We will consider it.

Waiting for more of your comments. We are here for you,

Milena

Does anyone know if subscribers will print out articles or pages from the digital edition?

It would be nice lol

timjones on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 6:21 am 

Excellent news for anyone living abroad, where magazines subscriptions are impractically expensive.

online edition is a democratic approach to charge everyone equally. Not like Economist Europe us Asia and Africa— prices are different. Dont want to waste hard earn penny.

joseph on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 6:24 am 

I think the ceoworld magazine digital edition concept is fantastic.

You just have to get used to the process of selecting the pages you want to print and then go and watch TV for half it might take a while to download.

you can print out the pages and put them in a file for convenience.

ruksania on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 6:26 am 

I have been missing paid subscription copies and hence the digital edition will to an extent fill the gaps, I hope!!

I would like to know if is printing of a piece allowed for our own keeping?

sajid on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 6:51 am 

Ceoworld was definitely onto something.

In the digital age I think there’s a lot to be said for a high quality, tangible product. It should have wonderful writing, beautiful design and illustration.

mahim on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 6:56 am 

It may seem premature, to say-

Break your magazine's contents down in to departments, columns, and features.

It is the proper execution of the idea that will make a great magazine.Scan the newsstand, check the reference books, and list your competition.

glenilika on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 6:58 am 

Hooray, I’m so excited about this, my husband is South african and its always international print magazines are expensive here!!! I can’t wait to see!!

mark on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 7:02 am 

It is always more complicated launching into an uncertain environment.

simply because advertisers become much more cautious and less willing to back a digital magazines. As its new know one knows how!!!!!!!!! lol

But all the best

simentha on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 7:03 am 

A good magazine can be launched at any time in any form. If you have a magazine you want to bring to the market, you just have to take a deep breath and put it out there.

chris on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 7:03 am 

Obviously, the magazine industry is going through a cautious moment where we are going to see more closures than launches, but I believe it is healthy for a company to be doing new things.

jones on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 7:04 am 

It is good to see magazine launches and I am pleased one or two are still happening, as they are absolutely necessary for the lifeblood of the industry.

Inevitably, there are fewer launches during a downturn and we aren't launching as many magazines as we have in the past.

Milena Golda on Fri, 17th Jul 2009 7:06 am 

Dear Readers,

We are happy to get even more of your comments.
Without you we could not make it happen!
We will publish your comments till the end of this day – Europe timing ;-) and will drop you a “summary” note.

All best wherever you are.

Yours,

Here in the UK, I believe most of the major publishers are focusing on managing their businesses in this changed financial environment, while they are having to grapple with some fairly significant issues.

Some of them have done that more publicly than others in terms of reducing the cost base.

Everybody knew this was going to be a hard year, but I don't believe anybody anticipated quite how bad it was going to be. All the best :))))))))))))))))))))

Online flip publications, e-zines or e-magazines is going to be the future for online reading. It's fast, easy and also better for the advertises, who will benifit from hyperlinks and get more business.

We are currently running a very sucessful business (SaaS) where it's possible for everyone to create the online publications – fast, easy, and cheap

Take a free test and try out – It is going to be the future based on our experiences. In less than 16 months since our launch, we have got users from more than 50 different countries and it's still growing.

It's green and saves a lot of money for readers and publishers and a perfect altenative to traditionel print
