Basically a while back I started a print music magazine. However, we soon realized most advertisers only advertise online these days. So we worked out a new format. It`s kind of a neat 3D virtual magazine type thing(it in the "read 123" section of the site) and we added a daily update blog to get people coming back every day.
Anyways check it out, and leave some feedback

Kind of interesting, but I`d just as soon see it in PDF format. When I finally figured out how to get to an issue, I did enjoy the nifty 3D technology. However, when I turned the page, got to an article, and clicked in to zoom, it was too hard to read for my eyes.

What mostly bugged me was that when I did click to read, there was a long enough pause between the "Done" message and the first indication of "Loading," that I almost thought the page didn`t work. I really wonder how come so many developers don`t put up an hourglass to at least let the client know that something is still in the process of happening.

All in all, it`s a fun use of new technology, but not a whole lot of interest in my age group (over 45). No clue, though, what younger people and music fans` reactions will be. :-)

Isn`t there some way to at least put an MP3 file there so people can choose to hear the band being profiled in an article?
