Have you come across a magazine which bridges the divide between print and online journalism? Still wondering? Check out AMUSEMENT magazine which is being labeled as the first periodical offering content creating a connection in print and online.

Feel that this is something which you don't find unique at all then read further. Today every magazine available around the globe publishes its web address but how many of us really bother to log on to the internet and visit the website? The numbers are miniscule and because of this reason AMUSEMENT magazine attached RFID tags to page two of its magazine and as soon the reader touches the tag to the scanner, a request is sent to the remote server which gets you connected to the online content.

The unique email addresses even gave the editor of the magazine a chance to interact with individual readers in a personal manner. If you are interested in this magazine then this quarterly magazine is already available across several stores in US and Europe.

The first edition talks about interactive installation by Factoid, video game designed by Messhof, wallpapers by Philippe Jarrigeon and 3D video by Gkastere.

Seems this magazine has bridged the divide between print and online journalism.
