This is a link to to the free PDF version. Much better to buy it on paper here: http://www.magcloud.com/browse/Issue/102377 http://www.magcloud.com/browse/Issue/102377 The printing quality (from the last two issues) is great and it's amazing to have it as an actual physical magazine. I've submitted the link to HN if anyone fancies voting it up, it seems a bit silly to have the direct PDF link be the only link on the front page when the whole point of the thing is that it is an actual magazine: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1565184 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1565184

Unfortunately, outside of the U.S. the shipping is a bit expensive. Could we lobby MagCloud to ship from Europe too? And btw. does anyone know of a European MagCloud clone? Seems like a good idea...

  If someone in the EU wants to distribute the magazine, perhaps a bulk shipment to the distributer could be arranged (to save on shipping)? I know a flat-rate envelope costs something like $5 to mail internationally, and it can hold a lot of magazines.

  It cost $10.69 to have issue 2 sent to me here in the UK. Unfortunately the receipt isn't itemized but I don't think the shipping was much.. it arrived very quickly too. I assumed that MagCloud does have a EU based printer, but perhaps I'm wrong.

    Wow, quite a difference. I paid $13 for shipping, a total of $22 for issue number 1 to come to Germany. Do you receive diplomatic mail or something?
