I have been involved in a hypermedia publishing project. I'd like to present a very special NEW publication of ours -- InfoStacks. InfoStacks is a new HyperCard magazine on disk. When you subscribe to InfoStacks, each month you will receive a disk. "So what? There are other disk-magazines as well," you might ask. InfoStacks is different. InfoStacks is a true hypermedia publication. The magazine itself is a stack. It fully incorporates the power of HyerCard to help the readers learn more about HyperCard itself. InfoStacks provides linkages between articles within a issue. In the future when more issues are published, InfoStacks will also cross reference information between issues to fully explore the potential of hypermedia publishing. InfoStacks is available for subscription now. You can find a subscription form in the new issue of MACWORLD (April, page 115). If you cannot get hold of a copy of MACWORLD, you may subscribe by writing to: InfoStacks Subscription Service, MIT Branch P.O. Box 295, Cambridge, MA 02139. The full-year subscription fee is $87.60 ($7.30 per disk-issue). This fee includes postage and handling within the US and Canada already. Currently InfoStacks plans to deliver 1 disk per month to its subscribers. However, 800K is not very much in terms of HyperCard stacks. If InfoStacks ever become a two-disk magazine, all the current subscribers will NOT be affected by the small subscription fee increase.

Re magazine on a stack: Is there a way to sample one issue of this? $87 is a bit steep for me to take a flyer on, without knowing what's of interest in the magazine. Sorry for posting, but my mail out is ultra-flake. Scott Bayes bayes@hpfclw
