The Herald is a monthly news publication brought to you by the Federation New Network, who currently publishes the Herald digitally.

i think it would be cool in print form. but who would take the time to print them digitally?

LynxMukka · Posted Sat 06 Nov, 2010 11:36 PM

Not quite sure what you mean Pat, could you be more specific?

While a printed copy certainly would be quite nice, I am afraid I have to vote for no, because I am not willing to share my real life adress in the internet.

If this were to happen, your address would be kept extremely private.

I vote yes.

Would there be a charge for it? I'd trust these guys with my mailing address. They seem pretty straight-up.

I would say yes, but since I'm in the Netherlands, it might be a problem. I don't suppose the UFP is going to print & mail it to us for free, lol. (or free of charge but spammed with ads - I don't need my adres in a marketing database..)

Anyway, I think that for our 10 year anniversary, a nice printed glossy would be excellent. For now, it might be more trouble than its worth.

I think it is a very nice idea, but whilst it might be nice, with the digital edition I don't have to wait for it to arrive in the post, I can't lose or damage it and I can read it anywhere. For me the convieniance of the digital edition is its key selling point over a paper edition.

QFT. I'm sorry but I don't think I would be one who would be ordering this. It dosn't appeal to me. I love the fact that i can read it digitally and everything that chris said, its what makes it truely unique. So its a no for me.

Thomas Mullaly · Posted Mon 08 Nov, 2010 9:31 PM

Definitely a yes for me. I would be more than willing to pay for a copy as well for printing, mail, and a little something on the side for {UFP}.

Although I also like the digital version, I think that having something in my hands like a magazine or a book is irreplaceable by digital editions.

Not as much people taking part in the vote as one could hope for, but it looks like there's a want for a printed copy to be available at some point, thank you to everyone that gave feedback.
