O3LD is Now on Issuu!

No, you are not seeing things, and no, this is not "Photoshopped". Starting March 21, 2011, Operation Three-Legged Dolphin is making its way onto Issuu, an well-renowned publication-hosting website that is easy to use on computers, tablets and smartphones alike, and is the home to millions of magazines, books, pamphlets and so much more. We as a college magazine believe in the free distribution of our work, and digital distribution is just one of the ways we are targeting new prospective readers and recruiting new and ambitious staff members inside the College of Staten Island community.

So how good is Issuu? Part of what makes it the top publication site is the technology it has backing it and its ability to adapt said technology to changing times. Above is a screenshot of the HTML-based Issuu Reader BETA displaying our fourth issue in the Google Android built-in web browser (thanks to the Android-x86 Project). On laptops and home computers, Issuu provides their Flash-based reader with dynamic zoom and navigation controls (below) for comfortable reading, and can easily be embedded on different websites and blogs, thus making it possible to view publications from any platform big or small.

Lastly, we allow users with an account with Issuu to download issues of our magazine for personal reading free of charge! We also welcome constructive criticism on our work through comments from our fellow Issuu members. With every comment and e-mail, we're slowly making our magazine the best it can be by delivering exactly what our readers are looking for. This is just another way that the one and only humor magazine at the College of Staten Island is connecting with the community.
