For a quarterly publication, it may have been too underpriced to be worth it. At the same time, this type of content requires a ton of work, and I do not know their personal schedules. Our features range from 10 to 30 hours of work, and the most trivial notebooks still take at least an hour and a half.</p> <p>As far as our magazine is concerned, it’s safe to say it will be more than 10 pages, and we’ll do our best to price it accordingly. As we learn more, and the first edition is almost complete, we will pass more info on to you guys.</p> <p>Anytime during the process we welcome suggestions, so feel free to email our personal accounts, or leave comments.</p> I don’t know too much about the inner workings of design in flight.

As far as our magazine is concerned, it’s safe to say it will be more than 10 pages, and we’ll do our best to price it accordingly. As we learn more, and the first edition is almost complete, we will pass more info on to you guys.

Are there any lessons you can learn from Design In flight folding? It always seemed a little inexpensive to me. What you think?

Higher than that, I’d start picking through the contents and working out if it’s worth it. Can’t speak for everyone, but that’s my “just get it” price point.</p> <p>Dunno about design, but I love ChangeThis.com’s PDFs.. one of the few PDF layouts I’ve really found easy to read on screen.. but that was their whole idea.</p> If it were $5 or less, I’d buy an issue (if it weren’t just 10 pages or something) straight off the bat.

Dunno about design, but I love ChangeThis.com’s PDFs.. one of the few PDF layouts I’ve really found easy to read on screen.. but that was their whole idea.

We have had quite a few requests for pdf versions, and we also feel it would be nice to wrap up everything of significance at the end of the month, so we are creating the pdf magazine.

Thank you for the feedback.

I’ll bite my tongue about the irony of “THE Web 2.0 publiclication on the internet” being a PDF.
