Thanks =) We were thrilled to get it, and extra thrilled that the artist was cool with the work our layout designer did for the front/back effect =)

What's not to love??? Issue 5 ... WRAPS A SCIENTIFIC CORE WITH OUR MOST ECLECTIC SELECTION TO DATE—including two "mini graphic novels", and a script that will have you bubbling over with mirth.  We open with Rose Lemberg's "Imperfect Verse",…

Yes, I've read about GOOD and they are like you say funded by some trust. Please let me know how what happens from now on. I mean Radioheads campaign was hugely succesful and Paste were a bit unlucky with the recession. It was not the right time to…

Thanks for the info on the Paste Magazine fallout--I hadn't gotten around to tracking that down. Sorry to hear how it worked for them. GOOD magazine apparently did a similar thing, as well, but somehow--either with donations or more advertising, or…

Quiet a list :) Have to take some time to go through all the stuff. I think you should read about Paste on Google: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paste_(magazine) I think they made a huge mistake with their campaign. They got almost 30 000 new subscr…

:heh: I wouldn't argue for brilliance. Persistent, though, and _sometimes_ I learn from my mistakes. Maybe one in three. ;) Getting viral--I really don't know how to do it. There's the whole "thousand true fans" model, but we're a ways from that. W…

Fredrik Svensson replied to Kaolin Fire's discussion 'Running a sale'
My basic idea is that you can get these massive viral campaigns going, but only if you're good at PR!? Or what do you think!? I think it's very hard to be viral from your "little" community. It's all about being viral in the "mediaworld"!? It's bas…

Fredrik Svensson replied to Kaolin Fire's discussion 'Running a sale'
Don’t get me wrong! I think you’re brilliant! You’ve got the goods to succeed! I just love to discuss back and forth with intelligent people. Maybe something good will come out of it! When I think about it, we have been doing “similar” campaigns. T…

World of Goo was software--a game. It had been out for a year, doing moderately well, and, I believe as a business they were about to go under. They dumped a lot of advertising into their sale (it was all over Kongregate, at least, and probably othe…

Fredrik Svensson replied to Kaolin Fire's discussion 'Running a sale'
I have another couple of ideas! 1. Is there any publicity value for you with this campaign? 2. Isn't this basically a short term viral campaign that doesn't work in the long run?

Fredrik Svensson replied to Kaolin Fire's discussion 'Running a sale'
Really interesting stuff! And I would be happy to continue this discussion with you when you have the time! This English magazine have a model where they sell pdf:s as well as a paper version. Not pay what you want, but rather cheap: www.backpassma…

:heh: I almost wish it wasn't a grown-up magazine; I'd be peddling it to schools left and right. ;) No idea re: full price. People don't want to be cheap ~ but I've seen that they can be. I had a bunch of links but my computer crashed. It's been do…
