As much as I love the internet and digital communication it’s not all that and a bag of chips.
In fact, I still love holding a newly-printed magazine in my hand, smelling the ink and turning the pages. And I know that I’m not the only one.
As such, there’s still large value in creating physical forms of communication and even at 8BIT we’ve been talking about creating some physical things to complement our near-100% digital form.
But perhaps before we get there we’re going to play around with a digital form of a magazine, slowly moving to the 100% print!
That’s where a service like FormatPixel might come into play.
