Zinio Announces ZINIO FUSION Program For Would-Be iOS Publishers And Advertisers

Zinio, the San Francisco-based digital newsstand service, today announced the launch of ZINIO FUSION, a new tool suite designed for publishers and advertisers to help them more quickly create interactive content. Unsurprisingly, this should be great news for tablet owners, as it will likely lead to more collaborative magazines and newspapers. ZINIO FUSION combines three different approaches and products for enhancing design and interaction. These include FUSION Web, FUSION Design and FUSION Link. FUSION Web is an online do-it-yourself web tool that allows the embedding of rich media, including audio and video. FUSION Design, in comparison, uses an Adobe InDesign plug-in to offer a simple build-out for interactive and multi-layered pages. Finally, FUSION Link offers seamless integration and content transcoding for external third-party authoring tools such as Woodwing’s Digital Publishing Solution. Take a look:

According to Zinio President & CEO Rich Maggiotto:

"The digital publishing industry is constantly evolving. Zinio prides itself on staying a few steps ahead of the market and designing innovative ways to create strong connections between a publisher’s content and their community.”

To test-drive ZINIO FUSION, simply download the free Zinio app for the iPhone/iPod touch and iPad. Upon free registration you will have access to two free ZINIO FUSION-powered issues of Robb Report and One Icon.
