Re: The Future of Publication Design

I think the one company that got it right with the transition from print to digital publications was Wired. They immediately embraced all the interactivity that a user could want and kept in all the real-world cues and effects to remind people they aren't just on another website. Wired published this article in May of this year discussing the artifice of the page flip, reveling in it's sucess at "blend[ing] the tactility of real-world pages with the digitally native tablet aesthetic."
If anyone SHOULD understand how to make the transition from print to digital, it is Wired, given their niche.
