Evaluate iPad editions of magazines - free Wired.

Several of our magazine track students gave presentations on the potential of iPads and other tablets as a new format/medium for magazines. Here's some info on a trial offer. (BJB)

From Jordan Lawson -

I found this interesting because of my next big thing topic.It's a great marketing ploy to tempt readers to see what the Wired iPad edition is all about (and it's gorgeous). More interesting than the marketing ploy is at the end of the article: "The magazine went on to explain that paying the same price for the digital copy as the print one 'can’t possibly be the future,' but Wired still has no immediate plans to launch a subscription-based model on the iTunes Store." Come on Wired, be a trendsetter!
