A little project I’ve given myself is to create an archive of digital magazines, which will be accessible from within the Home Cinema Choice website. These will comprise specials we’ve done, like Living with home cinema (browse above), plus samplers and ultimately entirely new, digital editions. The issue above was created using the Issuu platform, a free pdf-to-flash application that I think works supremely well. To take a browse through the hundreds of free magazines now available in this format, visit the virtual bookshelves at issuu.com.
I also have a half-baked idea to compile a retro publication featuring the writings of Bob Tomalski. Bob was a hugely influential UK tech journalist with an infectious enthusiasm for AV and an ability to craft stories in a way alien to most contemporary media commentators. Issuu seems a great way to give his archive some visibility.
