Magazines on Computer Tablets o’ the Future?

Posted on December 17, 2009 in: Tech

The folks at Bonnier, publisher of Popular Science and other magazines, are working with Berg on prototypes for digital magazines to be displayed on tablet computers of the future (are you paying attention, Apple? — actually, I’m sure they are).

Digital magazine of the future?Luckily, we have people working on digital publishing in the coming age of tablet computing.

The folks at Bonnier, publisher of Popular Science and other magazines, are working with Berg on prototypes for digital magazines to be displayed on tablet computers of the future (are you paying attention, Apple? — actually, I’m sure they are).

The project, called Mag+, attempts to “marry what’s best about magazines with the always connected, portable tablet e-readers sure to arrive in 2010.”

Take a look at the prototype video and more photos:

    Fantastic! The elegant transition between landscape and portrait is very nice. I also like what he say’s in the video about having content that has an end and isn’t just an endless RSS feed. It seems less intimidating.

    So when do we get these again?

    :s.
