I completely missed news of this magazine before it was printed. Now that I know it exists, I’m more than a little shocked.
I’m shocked that anyone would start up a traditional printed magazine in this economy.
I’m shocked that a company would produce a PRINT product for an electronic service when transmitting it electronically (to tablet or as Arena suggested, to PDF) would be so much more cost-effective.
And I’m shocked that they’re expecting anyone to pay $12 for a copy. Twelve bucks?!? There’s no magazine I’d pay that kind of money for.
James began using WordPress in 2004. Being new to WordPress (and blogging in general), he quickly found the WordPress Support Forums and basically never left. James currently resides in sunny Southern California, where he enjoys bringing happiness to millions of WordPress.com users.
“…This is quite possibly the first ever printed WordPress publication, at least I can’t find any others, so this is a rather monumental occasion….”
Technically speaking you are wrong.
WordPress for dummieS. First Edition.
That is a printed WordPress publication that was printed BEFORE this WordPress magazine.
Books, Magazines, Newspapers, Comics are all publications. Technically saking.
Good point, I meant to refer to it as the first printed magazine publication for WordPress. I should have clarified that.
I have also ordered for this magazine 3 days ago, and still waiting for it!
to avoid international postage fees, could be cool to buy pdf version !

You know, I totally thought it would have been the first WordPress magazine format publication too.
