I've had some questions on what "MagCloud" is and maybe some frustration over not necessarily having access to the normal "digital flip magazine" format.
1) First, the standard free magazine will be released sometime in the next week or so and notification will be sent out. The time lag is mainly because there are slight differences in format between the "print" version and the "digital" version. The print one has a longer turn-time from a proofing standpoint, so it is better for me to release that one first.
2) MAGCLOUD -- MagCloud is simply an external service that provides single copy printing of magazines. Meaning when you order, one copy is mailed and sent to the buyer. You don't have to become a member of MagCloud if you do not want to. The purchase can be as simple as any other online purchase.
