January/February 2012

Our table of contents is now online.



Unfortunately, we has already gone to press when we heard of Grandmaster Ming Lum's passing. Consequently, the news story, Grandmaster Ming Lum's 85th Birthday By Zhao Xiaohu, will seem dated. We'll have an obituary, for both GM Ming Lum and GM Al Novak in print for our next issue.

Is there supposed to be a link from the article? The only video link I saw was on page two in the Kelly Kim ad....

Thanks for continually trying to improve the zinio experience though. It makes it worthwhile having to wait longer than the print subscribers.

Any chance you are going to get KFM on the Nook Color?

That would be cool!

Tjr, HH & FX

Tjr: Go to page 80 for the vid.

HH: You should have made this delivery, but double check with Sales@MartialArtsMart.com. Unfortunately, we're all being affected by the strain on the USPS, so subscription deliveries are getting even more sluggish across the board. Sorry about that.

FX: We're exploring Kindle now. Nook is next on our list. We're contractually committed to Zinio for several more issues - and they've been doing quite well by us. As for the other tablets, well, it's a bit of a game, isn't it? Which technology is going to be the most fruitful? Of course, if Zinio starts working for the other platforms, the problem is solved. But it's a big scuffle in the publishing world right now. We'll see.

Thanks for your feedback everyone!

Comments on the YouTube channels are also welcome.

Same goes for our heh Vimeo channel.

When I go to page 80, all I see is the big pic of Li Jing staring back at me with a sword in hand (well, and all the text). The only link on the page is to kungfumagazine.com's main page. There's no little box with a video link like there is on page C2 for the Tiger Claw Kelly Kim ad.

That's weird

It works for us. There should be a hypertext link that presents the screen. It's different than the Kelly Kim link as that's just an embedded hypertext to a YouTube vid (it's a snap code in the print magazine) and this is an actual embedded video.

What are you viewing it on?

I'm using a 64GB iPad 2 (wifi only).

Where in the article is the hyperlink? I tried deleting the issue and downloading it again, but I still only see a hyperlink to kungfumagazine.com on that page.

Why kindle? The Nook is awesome!

Anyways, it would make a difference because e-subs are usually cheaper and I have more electronic space than physical living in an apartment. Hope you guys can work something out though, it would be great.

Haa, see, we're still trying to get on top of iPad...

There's an investment of both time and money with each tablet platform. For starters, we need the hardware, just to see what we're doing. We have some iPads here, and a Kindle Fire is on the way. We don't have a Nook yet. All good things in all good time.
