A thought, iPad magazines would be an excellent place to implement many of Bret Victor's ideas for interactive numerical content, i.e. adjusting variables and seeing how they impact a final result and perhaps seeing that graphed. This seems like a more easily updated model than really unique interactive content in each issue because the artwork can be generic. The iPad would probably be more usable for this than the web, because it is easier, more natural, and is a more common interaction paradigm to interact with sliders and such on the iPad versus the web. Popovers would also work well here. It would probably work well for the Economist, which is known for having many great graphs and charts, but I think it would be fun for any news outlet because it isn't gimicky. Small edits for clarity, popovers.
