High praise for The Economist for iPad

Ryan Singer of 37signals about The Economist for iPad:

“I don’t get to say this often: it’s a perfect execution.”

Though I have purchased books I have yet to purchase or subscribe to a magazine or newspaper on the iPad. Ryan’s praise for The Economist may change that.

The most widely read magazine in the world

Spoiler: The Watchtower published by Jehovah’s Witnesses. The New York Review of Magazines has an excellent article about The Watchtower, its history, publication and distribution. I recommend giving it a read.

Disclaimer: For those of you that do not know, I’m one of Jehovah’s Witnesses.

My photos have been published

Just when I thought my head was unable to grow larger, since being quoted in a nationally syndicated magazine, one of my Macbook photos was published in a small publication called Geekanoids.

Inner page of Geekanoids preview issue

The preview issue can also be downloaded as a PDF. I’m actually thinking of picking up a subscription to Geekanoids, not only because they included one of my photos in their preview issue, but also because the material seems to be very good. I’m hoping that their upcoming reviews in the July 1st issues are worth the money, and from what I can tell they will be.

UNITS, May 2006, Page 96

Paul Bergeron, Director of Communications of the National Apartment Association, contacted me in late April asking if he could use a portion of my “Misuse of Buzzwords” article on Business Logs from January. He told me that they were working on a very small piece for their May 2006 edition of UNITS, the NAA’s magazine.

Of course, I was flattered and honored that some of my thoughts could be published in their magazine. I agreed, and asked if he could send me a copy of the UNITS magazine (he sent me two!).

If you see this magazine around somewhere, turn to page 96, and see my name in print.
