Zoomorama makes it possible to create online magazines which are known as Zoomazines. This is a very easy process which simply involves pasting images and multimedia content. The idea behind the site is to enable users to create a magazine which will rival LIFE magazine.
LIFE uses a lot of images in its magazines and this is what the creators of Zoomorama are allowing you to do. It’s much easier to explain using pictures rather than with lots of text, it also makes it possible to easily design your magazine to make it as attractive as possible.
In Their Own Words:
Zoomoroma is born out of a dream made by a photographer who wanted to reproduce the magic of LIFE magazine on the Web. LIFE has been graphically the most innovative newsmagazine for more than 40 years. It succeeds in explaining the world to us through images, better than any words could ever do. But above all, it has conveyed emotions thanks to superb layouts that no other magazine ever managed to imitate.
What makes this site a Great Site To Visit:
Unlike other applications this one is designed to create a number of different types of web content including magazines and photo albums. It also has downloadable software which makes it really easy to create and manage your content. It’s not finished and many of the typos are irritating. The name is also quite catchy but difficult to remember how to spell.
The Look And Feel:
The design of the site isn’t bad but it looks a bit outdated. There are a number of silly typos and places where it says “Click Here” even though there isn’t actually a link there. This leaves you feeling that the site is unfinished, it is in Beta so this is strictly true but these are minor errors which should already of been fixed.
It’s possible to read publications without an account, however if you want to comment or create your own then you will need to register for an account. This doesn’t take long, when you sign up all accounts will be free. You do also have the option to upgrade your account at a later date if you wish. Signing up for an account is easy and involves a fairly standard signup form, do choose your username carefully though because this can’t be changed. Also there is a capatcha test; unlike many others this one is case sensitive so make sure you respect the capital letters! Make sure you check the tick box before you click the save button.
Final Thoughts:
Zoomorama is recommended for anyone that wants to create an online magazine but has no idea where to start. The software is very simple and because it’s free it makes it very easy to build and design your very own magazine.
