Print vs. Online Pubs, Part 2

A lot of what I was going to say has already been said well enough by other folks in the comment section. There's lots of different ways to do a successful online publication. In most cases I'd rather my work to appear in an online pub that followed a print model than a print pub with a limited circulation because as I said earlier, I want my work to be read. But I still think online pubs would be better served using the medium to their advantage instead of just translating print style. It's so confining. Designing a brand new site for each issue seems to defeat the purpose.

I love the content of Octopus and would definitely check out a cheapo print pub and a "gallery-style" online pub.
