What Kind of Magazines do You Like?

Years ago, my Dad sold magazines for a living. I really haven’t subscribed to any for a long time. Do any of you actually subscribe to any magazines, and actually have them delivered to your house? It seems that with some of them, even if you stop paying for them… they keep showing up! I’ve had several in the past that I just quit paying, because I no longer wanted to receive them. Yet they still keep coming! Usually, by the time news reaches your mailbox in a magazine… it’s already old news. You’ve read it online, or watched it on television. Even weekly periodicals can be out of date by the time it gets to you.

What if you want to create your own magazine and archive it forever and ever? You might head over to Tabbloid. You don’t even need to sign up to get started with things. You really can create your own ‘magazine’.

Enter in the RSS feeds that you want to read. Choose what email you want it sent to, along with the day(s) and time(s) you want it sent. Voila! That’s all there is to it. As soon as you set your options, you can click on “generate now” at the bottom. Your .pdf will be created and opened, ready to read or even print.

RSS feeds are everywhere. Heck, it doesn’t even have to be an RSS feed… it could be an Atom feed. Any website that has a feed is able to be placed into your magazine. You can read and delete it, save it for later, print it out, or even just archive it forever. It may be what you’ve been looking for all these years.

Well I subscribe to The New Yorker, Wired, The Smithsonian, Electronic Gaming Monthly and Official Xbox Magazine… Haha I like to have a variety of reading material. Well to tell the truth the only reason I subscribe to OXM is for the demo disc. The magazine seems like an Xbox game advertisement most of the time.

I guess you can get a lot of the content online, but I just like throwing a few in my bookbag to break out when I’m bored at school.

I always pick up my monthly issues of my favorite mags. I have to have them, I read every page front to back. There’s nothing like holding that new copy in your hand, I’m like a little kid when a new issues is out. Soon as i can i flip through it first just to see what all is in it (Look at the pictures. Ha) and what head lines. Thats something you can’t do with a computer or a feed, well you can but it’s not the same. My favorite mag is CPU Magizine. Than i also get, Windows Vista’s Mag. I will pick up other mags here and there like Laptop and such. Love a good magizine, Nothing like it! Thanks

I like tech magazines mostly, but I also like TIME.

I thank your for passing on this resource to me Chris because I use it every day. The only thing that I don’t like about it is it the fact that my tabbloid is 30 pages wrong
