Interesting demo of a truly digital magazine from Terry McDonell, Editor of Sports Illustrated. This is more than just a bland digital PDF though. You can rearrange the contents to read articles in any order, archive and share individual articles, view dynamic ads with video, swap through a photo gallery of all the shots in the issue, and more.
Perhaps more interestingly, the video opens with: “Coming soon.” Sounds like this is already off the drawing board. The fact that it’s Sports Illustrated showing this off, and not just some knee-jerk tech blog wetting itself over some student’s senior thesis 3D design project, says good things.
Sidenote: Some of the page transitions utilize a good ol’ fashioned “page flip” sound from a real world magazine or newspaper. How long into the transition to digital tools will it take to drop these antiquated analogies?
