Its Time for a New Amiga Magazine - Its Time for Amiga.org Magazine

[Kees]

Behind the scenes, a lot of people have been working on the launch of a new, printed, monthly (11 issues a year) worldwide Amiga Magazine.

Amiga.org Magazine will will aim at Amiga and Pegasos users and will have 52 pages in black & white with a full-colour cover. The magazine wil feature: news, interviews, reviews, previews, in-depth articles, 'how-to's, tutorials and lots more.


Issue 0 will be launched at the Benelux Amiga/Pegasos Show and will be an introduction to the magazine. At the show you will be able to subscribe to the magazine and you can take issue 0 with you directly. We will also launch a website for the magazine, where you can subscribe and find more information about Amiga.org Magazine.

After several weeks issue 1 will be launched to subscribers and will be sent to retailers that carry the magazine in their product range.

More information will be made available soon. For questions and suggestions mail kees@amiga.org

Some early advice Kees: put everything through a spellchecker, including announcements. It doesn't look good when the first announcement of a new magazine contains spelling mistakes.

(e.g "isseu" instead of "issue")

Having said that, I wish the magazine all the best. The more publications we have available to us the better.

  :-D

Thanks ... I'm glad we have a spell checker on the team  :-)

Uhh. very cool....

price

How to subscribe ??

[Rodney]

Sounds good... i know i should be asking in the email, but i havnt got email setup on this machine.

I wonder, how much it will cost

and i wonder if ordinary people like myself wil lbe able to submit material we've put together in the hope of seeing it in the magazine.

I've writen stuff for Amiga.org before, and its actualy ended up in all sorts of places. I've got a coupla interviews up my sleave, which i will no doubt post to Amiga.org exclusivly, but i wonder if they'd get a chance in the magazine.

Fantastic, this motivates me to do something, and with my spare time these days (being unemployed and all that) doing anything is very welcome for myself.

Neat. Printed magazine with real paper pages. It's been a long time I
have ordered one... I'm waiting for more info. .

WOW! What a pleasent suprise! It takes balls to start a new Amiga magazine these days. Anyhow, i have an article written some years ago but have never been published. Would be nice to get it on Amiga.org magazine`s pages.

I just hope this mag will last longer than other, discontinued print magazines. CHEERS!

Excellent news!  I look forward to seeing the results of this endeavour  :-)   I hope you get many, many submissions and have a long printing run.

And I concur with bhoggett,  spell- and grammar- checkers (of both the human and digital varieties) will be a valuable ####et... and I'm certain some people here will volunteer *orders big Acme Flashing Arrows and points them at himself* (why do I suddenly feel like Wile E. Coyote??)

But seriously, best of luck, I'm sure this announcement and magazine will make many people happy :-D

If only the [censored] trolls would take notice and spend their time on something this worthy...
Keep up the good work, folks.

I look forward to seeing the results
