Wired’s Newest iPad Issue Boasts Its Best Feature Yet: Free

All things digital reporting Peter Kafka Posted on April 15, 2011 at 6:40 AM PT

Remember when iPad magazine apps–and Wired’s app in particular–were big news? That was a year ago.
Now Wired would like to remind you that it’s still publishing on the iPad, and the Conde Nast title is offering a pretty good incentive to give it another look: Its newest issue, which should go online today, will be free.
The one-time promotion comes via a sponsorship from Adobe. Which shouldn’t be a surprise, given that Adobe and Wired have been working hand in hand on tablet publishing for nearly two years now.
Wired has also added a few more bells and whistles to the app, including the ability to share stories via Facebook and Twitter. There’s also an e-commerce partnership with Amazon, where  readers can purchase items the magazine writes about via the online store, but without leaving the magazine app itself.
