Transworld Digital
We mentioned Water Magazine going digital, and now Transworld is following suit. Sort of. You can still get the print edition, but now there is also a digital subscription for $10.
“With the digital edition of TransWorld magazines you can be the first to get new issues, have archived personal account access to all your magazines from any computer any time, store your favorite articles/how to’s, and have the ease to search the entire magazine with any keyword. Not to mention, there are no international postage rates and you don’t run the risk of losing any issue.”
I checked out the free demo, and I got the spinning color wheel of death immediately, it locked up my computer for about 45 seconds, while I sat in a panic waiting to see how many of my unsaved documents I was about to lose, but then it stopped. I flipped the page, to the first ad, and got the spinning wheel again. So I closed the browser, saved all my files, and then tried again on my laptop, and the demo worked perfectly. It’s exactly like the print edition, but online, and with zooming.
I don’t know, I still like holding magazines in my hand. But if you don’t, or you’re one of those “environmentalists”, you now have another option.
