Books and Contributions to Books

A responsive website adapts to each users' device, changing its presentation through fluid grids, scalable images, and CSS3 media queries.

The Magazine Industry Is Becoming Mobile, Alex Maxwell

Graphic Communication

Are magazine publications seeing an increase in profits since the rise of the mobile magazine application? My investigation focused on magazine publications that feel that producing their product for use on a tablet is worth the increase in resources. These applications allow the consumer to read their purchase on an array of electronic tablets, which are arguably beneficial for magazine publications in the future.

This study helped me discover that “developing a digital replica of a magazine is extremely cost effective because postage and material costs are no longer required.” (H. Glassie, Senior Project - Alex Maxwell, January 14, 2013) …
