SUMMARY: I only have the one sample issue at the moment. I'm not too worried about cataloging these immediately - Interweave Press is good about providing an on-line index for all their magazines. If you root around their website a bit, you'll find them. As with all other Interweave Press publications that I've read, this is quite engaging with lots of interesting history given along with the projects and and tutorials. If you are interested in getting into or are a long time spinner and somehow missed it, this magazine is a treasure.
HOW TO MAKE THIS MAGAZINE CATALOG SEARCHABLE:
METHOD ONE(downside is it takes some effort and time):
1. Open a blank page in your favorite word processing program.
2. Right click and "SELECT ALL"
3. Right click and "COPY"
4. "PASTE" or CTRL"V" what you copied into the blank page(it could take a while depending on the size of the page)
5. Use the search function as you normally would. Try to stick to only one word, since authors will sometimes use their middle initial, then not, change names, etc.
6. Trash the blank page when you're done.
METHOD TWO(downside is you have to wade through a lot of HTML code to read the entries):
1. Right click and "VIEW SOURCE". This will bring up a second window that will give you a behind-the-stage look at my coding along with the entries. There is a search function on source pages.
Use it as you would the search function for a word processor(see METHOD 1). Close the Source page when you're done.
